A

amygdala and prefrontal portion of the cerebral cortex

Q

BLANK is a cluster of nuclei buried underneath the cerebral cortex in the temporal lobe is part of the limbic system. Brain’s early warning system. Receives stimulus input from all the body’s sensory systems, performs rapid assessments of the input and alerts the brain and body if it judges that some sort of whole-body or behavioral reaction may be called for. Unconscious emotional responses.

A

amygdala

20
Q

Two methods the amygdala receives sensory input are

A

subcortical route and cortical route

Q

BLANK analyzes incoming information even before that information has been processed by senosory areas of the cerbral cortex.

A

subcortical route

22
Q

cortical route
