Answer
(a) Location of the Limbic System.
The limbic system is better conceived of as a functional system than as a system with precise location of its structures. Its operation involves a network of neurons that range over noncontiguous brain regions like the amygdaloid body, the rhinencephalon, and the diencephalon.
Work Step by Step
(a) Brain regions with limbic system components are the amygdaloid body, the rhinencephalon and the diencephalon;
Components in the rhinencephalon are cingulate gyrus, septal nuclei, hippocampus, dentate gyrus and the para-hippocampal gyrus. Diencephalic structures are the hypothalamus and the anterior thalamic nuclei.
