Answer 1

1) ANSWER IS ANTERIOR COMMISSURE

The anterior commissure  is a white matter tract (a bundle of axons) connecting the two temporal lobes of the cerebral hemispheres across the midline, and placed in front of the columns of the fornix.

The fornix is a C-shaped bundle of nerve fibers in the brain that acts as the major output tract of the hippocampus.The fornix is part of the limbic system,body of the fornix is present below the ant.commisure.

The Corpus Callosum is the part of the mind that allows communication between the two hemispheres of the brain.That is represented by the white ridge above the anterior commisure.

The interthalamic adhesion also called middle commisure,it is a flattened band of tissue that connects both parts of the thalamus at their medial surfaces.
