The individual parts of the cere-brum and the cerebellum at the base of the brain have been discussed inpreceding sections. 26 MACROSCOPIC ANATOMY OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM It is characteristic of the arterial blood of the brain that it is suppliedby two channels; the anterior portion of the brain by the internal carotidartery, the posterior part by the vertebral artery w
