Part 8 Flashcards
An organisms complete set of DNA
Human genome
A field that seeks to discover the influence of heredity and environment on individual differences in human trait
Behavior Genetics
Cells in brain that provide a variety of critical supportive functions and play a rile in communication
Glial cells
Primarily associated with processing visual information
Occipital lobe
Involve in memory, visual recognition, processing of emotion, and auditory information
Temporal lobe
Governs spatial processing and integrates sensory input with informational in memory
Parietal lobe
Organize behavior And is responsible for planning
Frontal lobe
Is the proliferation of neurons through cell division and is largely complete by about 18th weeks after conception
Neurogenesis
Electrical activity generated by active neurons
EEG (electroencephalographic)
Record changes in the brain’s electrical activity in response to the presentation of particular stimulus
ERP (event related potential)
Uses a powerful magnet to produce colorful images representing cerebral flow in different areas of the brain
FMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging)
Uses a radioactive material injected into the brain
PET ( positron emission tomography)
Same fertilized egg same genetic information
Monozygotic twins (IDENTICAL TWIN)
Produce two egg and gets fertilized by two different sperm cells
Dizygotic Twins (FRATERNAL TWINS)
One egg which splits into two and was fertilized by 2 different sperm cells
Half-Identical twins
