Question

Anu Bhardwaj · Accepted Answer

The highlighted structure in the image is the thalamus.

The thalamus is a small, egg-shaped structure located deep within the brain, superior to the brainstem. It acts as a major relay station for sensory information, receiving signals from the eyes, ears, skin, and other sensory organs and then routing them to the appropriate areas of the cerebral cortex for processing. It also plays a key role in motor control, consciousness, and alertness.
