Basal forebrain refers to the structure of the telencephalon, surrounding the inferior tip of the frontal horn strongly interconnects with limbic structures includes various structures such as the amygdale and the septum. It is the forebrain area anterior and dorsal to the hypothalamus that includes cell clusters that promote wakefulness and other cell clusters that promote sleep
Basal ganglia also called the Basal nuclei (deep nuclei of the telencephalon) refers to set of subcortical forebrain structures lateral to the hypothalamus. The Structures include the caudate nucleus, putamen, globus pallidus, substantia nigra, and subthalamic nuclei. Important relay stations in motor behavior, for example, the striato-pallidothalamic loop. Coordinate stereotyped postural and reflexive motor activity; forebrain structures important for motor control.
