| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Thalamus | Processes signals |
| Hypothalamus | Controls hot, cold |
| Substantia nigra | Produces dopamine |
| Reticular formation | Controls arousal, alertdness, sleep and wake |
| Medulla | Controls heart rate, breathing |
| Pons | Controls sleep cycles, breathing and movements |
| Cerebellum | Helps keep us in balance |
| Broca's area | Area responsible for speaking |
| Primary motor cortex | says what movements someone does |
| Primary somatosensory cortex | Picks up the signals |
| Frontal lobe | THe part that controls actions and decision making |
| Occipital lobe | The part where we use to see |
| Wenickes area | Where we process speech |
| Sensory neuron | Receives the signal and sends it to brain |
| Motor neuron | Sends the neurons to where they need to go |
| Interneuron | Connects motor and sensory neurons |
| Dendrites | Picks up the message and they're the tails |
| Soma | The part where the nucleus lives |
| axon | The part where the cell body passes the message to |
| Myelin sheath | The fatty layer between the ranvier and neuron |
| nodes of ranvier | The gaps between the sheat |
| Terminal buttons | The things on the axon |
| Axon terminals | Sends the neurons to the next neurons |
| Glutamate | Excitatory neurotransmitter |
| CTE | A long illness from multiple concussions |
| Concussion | Unconsciousness in the brain |
| Whats the difference between myelination and synaptogenesis | Myelination is wrapping a fiber around the axons to make them dast and synaptogenesis is connecting |
| Whats the difference between synaptogenisis and synaptic pruning | synaptogenesis is connecting neurons together while pruning is getting rid of the old ones you dont use |
| Whats the difference between myelination and synaptic prining | Myelination is a coat covering the axon to make them fast while synaptic pruning is getting ridd of old synapses you dont use |
| Whats the difference between Myelination and re routing | Myelination is a coat covering the axon to make them and rerouting is using new pathways to take a signal somewhere else |
| Whats the difference between Synaptogenesis and sprouting | Synapto is the growth of a new nerve fiber and sprouting is connecting |
| Whats the difference between adaptive plasticity and developmental | reorganizes itself and changes with time and age |
| What do u think are symptoms of frontal lobe damage | Losing control, decision making struggles, |
| What do u think are the symptoms of parietal lobe damage | Not being able to sense things well |
| What do u think brocas aphasia is | Not being able to speak words very well |
| What do u think wernickes aphasia is | Not being able to see on ur right |
| What happens with left brain damage | Impacts language, reasoning and movemtn of the right side of ur body |
| What is cognitive development | how people learn, reason and understand the world |
| What is emotional development | The process where people learn to understand, express and manage their feelings |
| What is social development | Learning adapting and growing with society |
| What is the difference between atypical and maladaptive behaviour | Uncommon and has trouble changing |
| What is the difference betwen atypical development and adaptive behaviour | When a child cant develop properly and adaptive behaviour is when ppl live their day to day life in a different encironment |
| Whats in the hindbrain | Cerebellum, medulla, pons |
| Whats in the forebrain | cerebrum, hypothalmus, thalamus |
| Whats in the midbrain | reticular, substantia |
| The pseudoscientific study of the relationship between the bumpy surface of the skull and a persons behaviour is known as what | Phrenology |
| What do i think the frontal lobe is responsible for | controls body movements |
| What is the frontal lobe actuallly responsible for | Filtering information sensory information |
| What did i think a patient who had his left primary motor cortex stimulated most likely do | Move a particular muscle on the left side of the body |
| What did the left primary motor cortex stimulated actually do | Move a particular muscle on the right side of the body |
| What did i think the prescense of myelin sheath on a neuron would lead to | Neural impulses being transmitted more quickly |
| What do the the myelin sheath actually do | interfere with the speed of transmission |
| What did i think the role of the dendrite was | collecting signals from other neurons |
| what is actually the role of the dendrite | receives information from pre synaptic neurons |
| Whats the difference between collecting electrical signals and receiving infromation from presynaptic neurons | When the neurotransmitters bind to a neuron to make an electric pulse and when a neuron releases transmitters across the synaptic gap |
| What did i think the two main parts of the spinal cord did | receive sensory information from the body and receive motor information from the body and send it to relevant parts of the body |
| What are actually the two functions of the spnal cord | receive sensory information from the brain and receive motor information from the body and send it to relevant parts of the body |
| Why do i think the face and the lips occupy a greater proportional area of the somatosensory cortec that the trunk of ur body | Because your brain is on your head |
| Why do the and face lips actually occupy a greater proportional area of the somatosensory cortec that the trunk of ur body | Because they need a lot more receptors to do different tasks |
| What did i think the brocas area was | to make you know what to say |
| what is actually the brocas area | Coordinates muscles of the mouth, tongue and larnyx and turns thoughts into words |
| How is the spinal reflex involved in the sensory process | It makes the loop of sensory, inter and motor neurons act quickly so they can do it quick again |
| what is one type of neuron that the nervous system has | Motor neurons which sends the messages to the muscles from the CNS |
| what is an adaptive plasticity for broca's aphasia | Rerouting then sprouting, then synapto supports it and myelination solidifies it |
| What are symptoms of frontal lobe damage | Impulsiveness, taking risks, lack of motivation and intense mood swings |
| What are the symptoms of parietal lobe damage | Misunderstaanding of space, sensory info, hemisphere neglect, getting lost in their own home, cant reach out for things |
| What are symptoms of wernickes aphasia | Not thinking while speaking, misunderstanding language |
| what are symptoms of brocas aphasia | Struggle speaking |
