What chemicals are released from the synaptic knob?
Neurotransmitter are means by which neurons communicate with one another. There are more than 30 compounds known to be neurotransmitters, and dozens of others are thought to be so.
Where are the 4 lobes in the cerebrum?
Frontal Lobe (controls thought processes, behavior, personality, emotions) Temporal Lobe ( controls hearing, understanding, speech, language) Occipital Lobe ( controls vision) Parietal Lobe ( controls body sensations, visual and spatial perception)
What are the 4 lobes of the brain?
There are four lobes of the brain, they are:Frontal lobe-conscious thought; damage can result in mood changesParietal lobe-plays important roles in integrating sensory information from various senses, and in the manipulation of objects; portions of the parietal lobe are involved with visuospatial processingOccipital lobe-sense of sight; lesions can produce hallucinationsTemporal lobe-senses of smell and sound, as well as processing of complex stimuli like faces and scenes.
What is the strongest bone in your body?
the strongest bone in the human skeloten system is the femur bone
What part of the brain is responsible for thinking and language?
Conscious thought is a function of the cerebral cortex of the brain. The more specific task of language is shared with all of the lobes of the cortex, but mainly the left frontal lobe is responsible for language production in an area called the Broca's area. ANd, language interpretion occurs in the Wernicke's area in the left temporal lobe.
What brain structure is involved in creating new explicit memories?
Several structures in the brain are thought to be involved in explicit memory. Most are in the temporal lobe, amygdala, the hippocampus, and the prefrontal cortex. Nuclei in the thalamus also are included.
When your problem solving and making decisions your rational thought is centered in your?
prefrontal cortex -APEX
Certain mental problems are thought to be caused by not having enough neurotransmitters. Why would a lack of neurotransmitters cause problems?
Neurotransmitters send signals from neuron to neuron
What part of the brain deals with thought personality perception and language?
The frontal lobe
What 2 neurotransmitters are thought to be involved in the pathophysiology of ADHD?
Dopamine
The is thought to be involved in your conscious recognition of smells?
Temporal Lobe
The region of the brain that is involved in conscious thought and intellectual function as well as processing somatic sensory and motor information is the?
prefrontal cortex.
What chemicals are released from the synaptic knob?
Neurotransmitter are means by which neurons communicate with one another. There are more than 30 compounds known to be neurotransmitters, and dozens of others are thought to be so.
Chemicals that facilitate the movement of impulses at synapses?
Neurotransmitters the are means by which neurons communicate with one another. There are more than 30 compounds known to be neurotransmitters, and dozens of others are thought to be so. You will only find them in the peripheral nervous system as the central nervous system uses mainly electrical signals.
What organs did not the Egyptians remove?
The heart they thought it was there source of knowledge and memories.
Where are short term memories stored?
Long-term memories are maintained by more stable and permanent changes in neural connections widely spread throughout the brain. The hippocampus area of the brain essentially acts as a kind of temporary transit point for long-term memories, and is not itself used to store information. However, it is essential to the consolidation of information from short-term to long-term memory, and is thought to be involved in changing neural connections for a period of three months or more after the initial learning.Scientists do not yet understand many things about human memory and many of the ideas and theories about it are still quite controversial.For instance, most scientists agree that it is very useful to describe human memory as a set of STORES which are "places" to put information, plus a set of PROCESSES that that can help you find your way around the store.
What is the base word for memories?
The word "memorial" is derived for the term "memory". Memory is the retained thoughts and acts. Memorials are what retains these thought/acts.
