entorhinal cortex
The entorhinal cortex is a brain region in the medial temporal lobe crucial for memory, navigation, and serving as a major interface between the hippocampus and neocortex.
-
C.
hippocampus
The hippocampus is a key brain structure involved in forming and retrieving memories, spatial navigation, and regulating emotional responses.
-
D.
dentate gyrus
The dentate gyrus is a subregion of the hippocampal formation crucial for forming new episodic memories and supporting adult neurogenesis.
-
E.
Limbic system
The limbic system is a network of brain structures crucial for processing emotions, forming memories, and regulating motivation and behavior.
