Other Systems

Question 0

The ans integrates functions with

Answer 0

Limbjc system
Hypothalamus
Reticular formation
Endocrine system

Question 1

The ans integrates and functions with limbic system

Answer 1

Emotion- amygdala(perceive/modulate/ anger and fear)

Question 2

Reticular formation

Answer 2

In brainstem cluster of cell bodies

Maintain consciousness, arousal, attention

Question 3

Endocrine system

Answer 3

Glands that secrete for digestion, mood, sexual function

Question 4

Why and intergrates and functions with other systems

Answer 4

• Links thinking brain to non thinking brain
• Regulates interval drives, moods, motivation, and visceral activities related to emotion
• unconsciously controls all visceral and somatic fixations related to keeping us alive
• heart, lungs, blood vessels, digestion, reproduction

Question 5

Limbic system to prefrontal cortex

Answer 5

Decision making/inhibition
Link the thinking brain with emotional
Override emotional impulsive drives
Help mediate motivation

Question 6

Limbic system to temporal lobes

Answer 6

Memory formation and storage

Question 7

Limbic system to hypothalamus

Answer 7

Autonomic, hormonal responses
Trigger ANS functions
Exert control over endocrine system, appetite, sexuality

Question 8

Hypo close to memory to ashes where or not in danger

Answer 8

Prefrontal- executive function
Consciousness decision making and run for your life
Hypo kick in what’s necessary

Question 9

Hypothalamus controls activities of the ans

Answer 9

• sexual activity
• GI tract activity
• respiration, BP, pulse rate, temp, metabolism, food intake
• endocrine system via pituitary gland

Question 10

Hypothalamus inputs

Answer 10

From reticular formation in the brainstem
From the amygdala in the limbic system
From the anterior cingulate and orbitofrontal PFC

Question 11

Hypothalamus outputs

Answer 11

-limbic system hippocampus&amygdala
- anterior cingulate gyrus to PFC
- thalamus
- pituitary gland (endocrine)
Brainstem and reticular formation
- ANS preganglionjc neurons

Question 12

Reticular formation structure

Answer 12

Collection of nuclei throughout brainstem
Midbrain, pons, medulla
Interconnected Circuitry
Axons extend longitudinally projecting to spinal cord, limbic system, BG, cortex

Question 13

Reticular formation. Functions

Answer 13

Motor and sensory
-inhibit, facilitate, modify, regulate cortical functions 
- integrate any/all sensory inputs with internal thoughts/emotions
Maintain homeostasis 
Regulate sleep/wake
Foster arosual
Maintain respiration 
Engage ANS

Question 14

Reticular Neurotransmitters

Answer 14

Serotonin- sleep/wake and depression
Norepinephrine- REM sleep, attention, alertness
Dopamine- Movement and motivation

Question 15

Reticular formation coma

Answer 15

No voluntary activity
No sleep wake cycles
No arousal or alertness 
No awareness 
No volitinal response to environment

Question 16

Reticular formation persistent vegetative state

Answer 16

Basic sleep wake cycles
Basic arousal
Minimal/inconsistent response to environment

Question 17

Reticular formation minimally conscious state

Answer 17

Partial conscious state
Sleep wake cycles
Inconsistent volitional response to environment

Question 18

Reticular formation locked in syndrome

Answer 18

Preserved awareness, sleep wake cycles, consciousness

Unable to move or respond with exception of eye blinks

Question 19

Hypothalamus stimulates not only the ANS but also

Answer 19

Endocrine system

Question 20

Endocrine system

Answer 20

Comprised of a group of glands
Relapse hormones direct into the blood stream
Exert control over bodily fix too a
When stimulated by ANS

Question 21

Endocrine system hormones

Answer 21

Chemicals released by secretion of a gland

Question 22

Endocrine system hormonal influences

Answer 22

Work much note slowly than the neural synaptic functions of the somatic system
May take hours to weeks to engage
Effects may persists for hours to weeks

Question 23

Hypothalamus and endocrine problems

Disruptions in:

Answer 23

Endocrine system
Thyroid functions- metabolism, appetite, weight
Growth patterns- dwarfism, gigantism
Reproductive capacity- menstruation, sperm, Ova
Food water intake
Emotional regulation
