What is the neural system at the border of the brainstem and the cerebral hemispheres known as?
limbic sysem.
Sequence of brain regions from oldest to newest?
brainstem, limbic system, cerebral cortex
Which part of the hindbrain is involved in sleep and arousal?
Non-sexual arousal (such as motor function) is centered in the brainstem.
What are the major parts of the subcortex?
Basal Ganglia, Limbic system, diencephalon, midbrain, hindbrain
Which part of the brain is crucial for the expression and regulation of emotions?
Limbic System
What is the neural system at the border of the brainstem and the cerebral hemispheres known as?
limbic sysem.
Sequence of brain regions from oldest to newest?
brainstem, limbic system, cerebral cortex
What is the donut shaped cluster of neural structures at the border of the brainstem and cerebral hemisphres?
The Limbic System.
Which part of the hindbrain is involved in sleep and arousal?
Non-sexual arousal (such as motor function) is centered in the brainstem.
What is the Limbic System?
A group of forebrain structures that form a border around the brainstem and are involved in emotion, motivation, learning, and memory.
Where is the reticular activating system located?
The reticular activating system is located in the brainstem, specifically in the midbrain, pons, and medulla. It is a network of neurons that plays a crucial role in regulating arousal, sleep, and consciousness.
What are the major parts of the subcortex?
Basal Ganglia, Limbic system, diencephalon, midbrain, hindbrain
Called the emotional brain?
limbic system
How is arousal regulated by the brain?
Arousal is maintained by the reticular activating system (RAS). This is not an anatomical area of the brain, but rather a network of structures (including the brainstem, the medulla, and the thalamus) and nerve pathways, which function together
Cannon-Bard theory of emotion?
the brain's processing of the emotional stimulus precedes both the physiological arousal and the simultaneously occurring emotion.
Which nerve network in the brainstem plays an important role in controlling arousal?
reticular formation
What is significant about the brainstem?
The brainstem controls several body functions. Heart rate, Blood pressure, alertness and arousal are all controlled by the brainstem. In infants, there are studies that prove that the brain stem is partly in control of auditory functions.
