QuestionAnswer
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

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
