As a result, companies attempt to forecast future events. Forecasting refers to a company's ability to try to figure out what is coming along in the future by using information available today. In this lesson, we're going to take a look at the two major types of forecasting as well as examples of each.
The cerebral cortex is the cerebrum 's (brain) outer layer of neural tissue in humans and other mammals.It is divided into two cortices, along the sagittal plane: the left and right cerebral hemispheres divided by the medial longitudinal fissure.n large mammals, the cerebral cortex is folded, giving a much greater surface area in the confined volume of the skull. A fold or ridge in the cortex is termed a gyrus (plural gyri) and a groove or fissure is termed a sulcus (plural sulci).
Cerebral Cortex. The cerebral cortex is the outer surface of the cerebral hemispheres. It is the highest level of the brain and has about 20 billion neurons in the human brain which carry out the highest levels of mental functioning. The cerebral cortex is a layer of grey matter up to about 1/2 cm thick. Figure 3-2d shows a cross section of the cerebral hemispheres with the cortex shown as the pink layer on their outer surface. Figure 4-2d shows a highly magnified slice through the cortex. It is stained with a dye that colors (only) the cell bodies of neurons and glia blue.
