Q

why if a person has Multiple Sclerosis the thinking capacity is affected?

A

Kasi impulses ay nag-jujump sa Nodes of Ranvier thus making it faster by myelin sheath. Kapag demyelinated, mabagal ang transmission of impulses

diencephalon; Considered to be the control center of the brain

A

thalamus

33
Q

In babies, the hypothalamus is ?
therefore they have no recognition of an
environmental temperature and have a
risk of hypothermia. That is why we put
them in the chest of the mother, and
incubator.

diencephalon; Pineal body is located here

A

epithalamus

36
Q

secretes melatonin

cerebrum; Responsible for personality, judgment, abstract reasoning, social behavior and broca’s area (motor speech)

A

frontal lobe

44
Q

cerebrum; Interprets sensations, size, shape,
distance, texture

A

parietal lobe

45
Q

cerebrum; Interprets auditory stimuli, Wernicke’s area (sensory speech). That is why if it is affected, you will not be able to
understand the information what is
coming to you

A

Temporal lobe

46
Q

cerebrum; Receives and interprets visual input

A

Occipital Lobe

47
Q

Is responsible for smooth and coordinated body movements

A

Cerebellum

Posterior

52
Q

portion of spinal cord that is responsible for motor

A

anterior

53
Q

If the motor is not damaged (anterior portion), there will still be no or have a response of motor activity if the posterior portion is damaged.

A

NO RESPONSE

54
Q

If the motor is damaged, you will be able to feel/or not to feel something but you won’t/would be able to move

A

able to feel, won’t
