stimul

Answer 11

Nervous system

This system comprises three central interconnected
cerebral structures: the septum, the amygdala, and the
hippocampus.

Answer 13

Limbic system

Question 14

This connects the forebrain to the spinal cord.

Answer 14

Brainstem

nerves from the right side of the body cross over to the left
side of the brain and nerves from the left side of the body
cross over to the right side of the brain.

Answer 15

Medulla Oblongata

Question 16

Involved in receiving and processing sensory
information, thinking, other cognitive processing, and
planning and sending motor information.

Answer 16

Cerebral Cortex

Question 17

He argued that left and right hemispheres behave in
many respects like a separate brain.

Answer 17

Roger Sperry

Question 18

One of the four lobes contains the primary motor
cortex, which specializes in the planning, control, and
execution of movement, particularly of movement
involving any kind of delayed response

Answer 18

Frontal lobe

Question 19

This is a dense aggregate of neural fibers connecting
the left and right cerebral hemispheres

Answer 19

Corpus Callosum

Question 20

These are the areas in the lobes in which sensory
processing.

Answer 20

Projection areas

Question 21

These cells tend to be arranged in the form of
networks, which provide information and feedback to each
other within various kinds of information processing.

Answer 21

Neuron

Question 22

It serves as a juncture between the terminal buttons of
one or more neurons and the dendrites (or sometimes the
soma) of one or more other neurons

Answer 22

Synapse

Question 23

It is a long, thin tube that extends (and sometimes
splits) from the soma and responds to the information,
when appropriate, by transmitting an electrochemical
signal, which travels to the terminus (end), where the
signal can be transmitted to other neurons.

Answer 23

Axon

Question 24

The neurotransmitter that Involved in arousal, sleep
and dreaming, and mood; usually inhibitory but some
excitatory effects.

Answer 24

Serotonin

Question 25

An excitatory in brain and either excitatory (at skeletal muscles) or inhibitory (at heart muscles) elsewhere in the body.

Answer 25

Acetylcholine

Question 26

A branch- like structures that receive information from other neurons.

Answer 26

Dendrites

Question 27

Imaging techniques that specifically records electrical frequencies and intensities of the living brain, typically recorded over relatively long periods.

Answer 27

Electrical Recording

Question 28

These are considered as X-ray–based techniques which allow for the observation of large abnormalities of the brain, such as damage resulting from strokes or tumors.

Answer 28

Angiograms , CT scan

Question 29

Static technique that allows for a much clearer picture of the brain than CT scans.

Answer 29

MRI

Question 30

A metabolic technique which measures the rise of oxygen consumption in active brain areas during particular kinds of information processin

Answer 30

Positron Emission Tomography (Pet scan )

Question 31

This representation believes that what matters is the appearance of the object to the viewer (in this case, the appearance of the computer to the author), not the actual structure of the object.

Answer 31

Viewer Center Representation

Question 32

The third orientation explained that information is characterized by its relation to a well-known or famous item.

Answer 32

Landmark centered

Question 33

We tend to perceive any given visual array in a way that most simply organizes the different elements into a stable and coherent form. Which concept best depicts this picture?

Answer 33

Law of Pragnanz

Question 34

Gestalt principles which requires that features appear to have balanced proportions around a central axis or a central point.

Answer 34

Symmetry

Question 35

The rationale behind this law bears repeating: It predicts that what we perceive is based on what usually happens in the environment. This means that if perception follows the Gestalt laws, it is likely that the resulting perception will accurately reflect what is happening in the environment.

Answer 35

Law of Good Continuation

Question 36

Martha Farah suggests that humans have two systems for recognizing patterns. Which of the system is most relevant to the recognition of faces

Another theory is concerning the role of the fusiform gyrus. It is activated when one examines items with which one has visual expertise. Which theory postulates it?

Answer 37

Feature of analysis system

Question 38

The physical characteristics of the external distal object are probably not changing. But because we must be able to deal effectively with the external world, our perceptual system has mechanisms that adjust our perception of the proximal stimulus. Thus, the perception remains constant although the proximal sensation changes. What system best fit the picture?

Answer 38

Perception constancy
