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
Rate of the cell differentiation intensifies, support system for cells form, and organs develop. 2-8 weeks
Embryonic Period
Growth and development continue their dramatic course during this time
Fetal period
Method of assessing the health of newborns at one and five minutes after birth
APGAR Scale
When you do something because you want to feel accepted
Peer pressure
Small groups that range from 2 to about 12 individuals
Cliques
Larger than cliques and less personal.
Crowds
Eating disorder that involves the relentless pursuit of thinness through starvation
Anorexia Nervosa
Eating disorder in which the individual consistently follows a binge-and-purge pattern
Bulimia Nervosa
Eating disorder in which the individual consistently follows a binge-and-purge pattern
Bulimia Nervosa
