| Question | Answer |
| Collection of Neurons | Nucleus |
| Collection of Nuclei | Region |
| Layers of the Meninges (from outermost to innermost) | Dura Mater (2 layers), Arachnoid, Pia Mater |
| Functions of the Ventricles | Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Production, Bouyancy/Protection, Removal of Waste |
| Main Structures of the Forebrain | Olfactory Bulb, Cerebrum, Thalamus, Hypothalamus |
| Lobes of the Cortex | Frontal, Parietal, Temporal, Occipital, |
| Frontal Lobe Function | Movement, Judgment, Impulse Control |
| Parietal Lobe Function | Sensory Processing, Movement |
| Temporal Lobe Function | Hearing, Language, Emotion |
| Occipital Lobe | Vision |
| Location of Striatum | Under the Cortex |
| Structures of the Striatum | Caudate and Nucleus Accumbens |
| Caudate Function/Disorder | Function: Sensory/Motor Function, Disorder: Schizophrenia, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder |
| Nucleus Accumbens Function/Disorder | Function: Reward/Motivation, Disorder: Addictions |
| Hippocampus Function | Learning Location in Space (Spatial Learning), Stress Regulation |
| Thalamus Function | Relay information to cortex |
| Hypothalamus Function | Sex, Eating, Stress |
| Main Structures of Midbrain | Substantia Nigra, Inferior/Superior Colliculus, Ventral Tegmentum, Central Gray |
| Substantia Nigra Function/Disorder | Function: Movement, Disorder: Parkinsons causes death of region |
| Inferior Colliculus (IS) | Hearing |
| Superior Colliculus (SC) | Vision |
| Central Gray | Pain |
| Ventral Tegmentum | Reward/Motivation |
| Main structures of Hindbrain | Cerebellum, Pons/Medulla |
| Cerebellum Function | Fine Movements, Posture, Balance |
| Pons and Medulla Function | Sleep/Wakefulness, Breathing, Blood Pressure, Digestion, Autonomic Functions |
| Structures involved in Reward/Motivation | Ventral Tegmentum and Nucleus Accumbens |
| Steps in Synaptic Transmission | 1) Synthesis of Neurotransmitters, 2) Storage (in vesicles), 3) Release into synapse (activated by action potential), 4) Receptor Activation, 5) Inactivation |
| Dominant form of neurotransmitter inactivation | Reuptake |
| Dopamine Synthesis Pathway | L-DOPA --> Dopamine |
| Dopamine disorders | Deficiency: Parkinsons, Excess: Schizophrenia |
| Dopamine Reuptake Inhibitor | Amphetamine (Used to treat ADD) |
| Dopamine Receptors and Function | D1) Stimulate post-synaptic neurons, D2) Inhibit post-synaptic neurons |
| Commonly prescribed antibiotic that caused destruction of vestibular system in case study | Gentamicin |
| Rotation around each axis of balance (All 3) | X-Axis (Pointing straight out from nose): Roll, Y-Axis (Ear to ear) - Pitch, Z-Axis (Top to bottom of head) - Yaw |
| Contribution of Camillo Golgi | Developed Silver Stain (Stains 1 in 1000 Neurons) |
| Contribution of Santiago Ramon y Caja | Utilized Golgi's Silver Stain to map nervous system |
| Contribution of Paul Broca | Discovered region responsible for SPEECH PRODUCTION |
| Contribution of Carl Wernicke | Discovered region responsible for SPEECH RECOGNITION |
| Broca's Aphasia | Understanding is unphased Limited vocabulary |
| Wernicke's Aphasia | Cannot understand spoken words Speech output is unphased |
