34
Q

Cingulate Gyrus

A

Emotions

35
Q

Hippocampus

A

Learning and Memory (HelpHippo!)

36
Q

Amygdala

A

Emotion and memory

37
Q

Cerebral cortex

A
  1. Sensory areas
  2. Motor areas
  3. Association areas
38
Q

Frontal Lobe

A

coordinates info from other association areas
controls some behaviors
Is the primary motor cortex

39
Q

Parietal Lobe

A

The primary sensory cortex

Sensory info from skin, muscuoloskeletal system, viscera and taste buds

40
Q

Occipital lobe

A

visual cortex and visual association area

41

A 
Bells palsey
Cannot close L eye
Asymmetric smile
Defect in R CN VII
Hyperacussis: increased sensitivity to sound in L ear
44
Q

CN XII nerve palsy

A

right side, tongue would deviate the the right

45
Q

noradrenergic

A

NE
Functions in attention, arousal, sleep-wake, learning, memory, anxiety, pain and mood
Neurons originate in the pons and terminate at the cerebral cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus, olfactory bulb, cerebellum, midbrain and spioal cord.

46
Q

serotonergic lower nuclei

A

Serotonin
Function in pain and locomotion
Neurons originate in brainstem and terminate in spinal cord

47
Q

Serotonergic upper nuclei

A

Serotonin
Function in sleep wake cycle, mood and other emotional behaviors
Neurons originate in brainstem and terminate in other areas of brain

48
Q

Dopaminergic

A

Dopamine
Functions in motor control and “reward” centers (addiction)
Neurons originate in brainstem and terminate in cortex and other parts of limbic system

49
Q

Cholinergic

A

acetylcholine
Functions in sleep wake cycles, arousal, learning, memory, sensory info.
Neurons originate in cerebrum, pons and midbrain and terminate in cerebrum, hippocampus and thalamus.

50
Q

The deepest sleep occurs…

A

during the first three hours

51
Q

Sleep

A

has 4 stages and 2 major phases

relies on natural circadian rhythm in body

52
Q

Slow wave sleep

A

Adjusts body without conscious commands

53
Q

REM sleep

A

Brain activity inhibits motor neurons to skeletal muscle, paralyzing them.
Dreaming takes place.

54
Q

Motivation

A
  • internal signals that shape voluntary behaviors
  • Drives
  • works with autonomic and endocrine responses
  • Motivated behaviors stop when a person has reached a certain level of satiety
55
Q

Moods

A

similar to emotions, but longer lasting. There are mood disorders, such as depression, which affect over 4M people world wide.

56
Q

Learning

A

Associative and Nonassociative learning (non associative is habituation and sensitization)

57
Q

Memory

A

There is short term and long term (working memory and consolidation of memories), and there is also reflexive and declarative, which are both subsets of long term
Memories are stored in memory traces

58
Q

Antrograde amnesia

A

is inability to remember new information

59
Q

Reflexive long term memory

A

Implicit memory.
recall is automatic and does not require conscious though. These memories take a long time to acquire.
-motor skills
-rules and procedures

60
Q

Declarative long term memory

A

Explicit memory.
recall requires conscious attention. These memories come through with extensive thinking, problem solving and comparison. These memories can be reported verbally.

61
Q

Language

A

involves Wernickes and Brocas associative areas in the brain

62
Q

Damage to wernickes area

A

Receptive aphasia

unable to understand language in its written or spoken form, but can speak normally

63
Q

Damage to brocas area

A

expressive aphasia

loss of the ability to produce language (spoken or written), but can understand language
