what does glutamate that is relesed by amygdala actually dod

A

increase AMPA trafficing

34
Q

active trace theory

A

memories in the active state are more vulnerable to disruption

35
Q

short term memories are in the _____ state

A

active

36
Q

long term memories are in the _____ state

A

inactive

37
Q

reactivating a memory puts it into what state

A

active

38
Q

recall makes a memory more ____

A

unstable

39
Q

reactivated memories need to be

A

reconsilodated

40
Q

episodic memory

A

extracts content from experiances/facts

41
Q

indexing theory of hippocampal memory

A

assumes the hippocampus stores an idex of cortical patterns that

42
Q

does the hippocampus store content?

A

No it recognizes a pattern of cortical activity

43
Q

pattern completion

A

subset of an experiance can est. a memory trace can activate an entire experiance

44
Q

pattern seperation

A

similar experiances can be seperated

45
Q

Why aren’t memories stored in the neocortex

A

it would be difficult to separate the memories if that activate similar nodes

46
Q

hippocampus stores the…..

A

context

47
Q

new memory traces require the ___-

A

hippocampus
