Question
Answer
At three weeks’ gestation, the ectoderm forms the ----, which invaginates, forming the -----, flanked on either side by neural folds.   Neural plate, neural groove  
🗑
By the fourth week of pregnancy, the neural groove fuses, giving rise to the______ , which rapidly differentiates into the ____.   Neural Tube,Central Nervous System  
🗑
The neural tube develops constrictions that divide the three primary brain vesicles give another name for: (forebrain),(midbrain), and (hindbrain)   the prosencephalon, mesencephalon, and rhombencephalon.  
🗑
Located in the frontal lobe. Allows conscious control of precise, skilled, voluntary movements.   PRIMARY MOTOR CORTEX  
🗑
Located in the frontal lobe.Controls learned, repetitious, or patterned motor skills.   THE PREMOTOR CORTEX  
🗑
Located in upper temple lobe.A motor speech area that directs muscles of the tongue. Is active as one prepares to speak   BROCA'S AREA  
🗑
Located in the frontal lobe. Coordinates simultaneous or sequential actions. Involved in the planning of movements   PREMOTOR CORTEX  
🗑
Located anterior to the premotor cortex and superior to Broca’s area.Controls voluntary eye movement   Frontal eye field  
🗑
control voluntary movement   Motor areas  
🗑
conscious awareness of sensation   Sensory areas  
🗑
integrate diverse information   Association areas  
🗑
caricature of relative amounts of cortical tissue devoted to each motor function   Motor homunculus OF THE PRIMARY MOTOR CORTEX  
🗑
Receives information from the skin and skeletal muscles. Exhibits spatial discrimination   Primary Somatosensory Cortex  
🗑
Located posterior to the primary somatosensory cortex, Integrates sensory information (temperature, pressure)   Somatosensory association cortex  
🗑
Forms comprehensive understanding of the stimulus. Determines size, texture, and relationship of parts.   Somatosensory association cortex  
🗑
Surrounds the primary visual cortexInterprets visual stimuli (e.g., color, form, and movement) by using past visual experiences   Visual association area  
🗑
Seen on the extreme posterior tip of the occipital lobe. Receives visual information from the retinas.   Primary visual (striate) cortex  
🗑
Located at the superior margin of the temporal lobe. Receives information related to pitch, rhythm, and loudness   Primary auditory cortex  
🗑
Afferent fibers from smell receptors in the superior nasal cavities send impulses along the olfactory tracts. Results in conscious awareness of different odors.   Olfactory(smell)cortex  
🗑
Located in the parietal lobe deep to the temporal lobe. Involved in the perception of taste stimuli   Gustatory(taste)cortex  
🗑
Responsible for conscious awareness of balance (position of the head in space   Vestibular(equilibrium)cortex  
🗑
Tumors or other lesions of the ________ may cause mental and personality disorders like mood swings and loss of judgment, attentiveness, and inhibitions   prefrontal cortex  
🗑
_____ will increase heart and respiratory rates during a fight-or-flight situation and decrease activity of digestive and elimination organs.   The sympathetic division  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
