The cortex is the grey part of the brain. It is made up of billions of cells that work together to control everything we do. The cortex is responsible for our thoughts, feelings, and movements. It also helps us to see, hear, and taste.
The cerebral cortex is the outer layer of the brain.
Noun: cortex (plural: cortices).
Adjective: cortical.
The word "cortex" comes from the Latin word "cortex," which means "bark" or "rind." The Latin word "cortex" is ultimately derived from a Proto-Indo-European word meaning "to cut.".
