The Locus Coeruleus is also known as the "blue spot" due to its distinct bluish appearance in brain sections. It is a small nucleus located in the pons of the brainstem and plays a crucial role in the modulation of arousal, attention, and stress responses by releasing norepinephrine.
No, schema is a term used in psychology to refer to a cognitive framework that helps individuals organize and interpret information. It is not another name for a brain, but rather a mental structure that shapes our perceptions and responses to the world.
The other name for "brain box" is cranium. It is the part of the skull that encloses and protects the brain.
Rarley i have heard them be called "nervous cells" but nothing else
One name for a brain infection is encephalitis.
LociA locus (plural loci) is the position on a chromosome where a gene is found. A useful analogy would be the address - 'Gene for brown eyes' is the name, '23rd gene' is the house number, 'Chromosome 4' is the street. (these are not necessarily true for this gene)A link can be found below.
The locus coeruleus is a nucleus in the pons. The name means "dark spot". The pons is part of the brain stem. It produces norepinephrine along with the adrenal medulla. It is involved in anxiety, attention, memory and emotions.
lick
Another name for brain surgery is neurosurgery.
Medulla Oblongata is another name for the brain stem.
The scientific name for the locus insect is Locusta migratoria. It is a species of short-horned grasshopper known for its swarming behavior and destructive impact on agriculture.
mesencephalon.
ganglion
yes it is
sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia is the scientific name
Another good name for a cellular nucleus would be "the brain" because it performs cellular functions much like the brain performs for our body. KARYON IS ANOTHER GOOD NAME.

Cheese is a rich source of neuroactive compounds including the monoamine called "tyramine", which has provokes the release of adrenaline. When we go to sleep a small part of the brainstem, called the locus coeruleus, switches on and through its connections with other regions of the brain triggers rem (rapid eye movement) sleep, which is associated with dreaming. The name locus coeruleus is latin for "blue place" and if you cut across the brainstem with a knife you can clearly see the blue-coloured nerve cells that comprise this region. The cells are pigmented by neuromelanin, the neurological equivalent of a suntan. Neuromelanin is made as a biproduct in the synthesis of the nerve transmitters noradrenaline (a relative of adrenaline) and dopamine. These chemicals are derived from tyrosine, the same stuff used to make melanin in skin cells. So the locus coeruleus, which triggers dream-sleep, uses noradrenaline as its nerve transmitter. Since cheese contains tyramine, which has the ability to potentiate the action of adrenline-like nerve transmitters, it is likely that eating cheese before bed fools the brain into thinking that there is more adrenaline waashing around than normal, making dreams more vivid. Famously, when some of the first antidepressants were invented they worked by blocking the breakdown of monoamine / indolamine nerve transmitters including dopamine, noradrenaline and serotonin by inhibiting an enzyme called MAO (monoamine oxidase). But when patients on these drugs ate cheese it could provoke periods of life-threateningly high blood pressure and a racing heart rate, through the uncontrolled release of adrenaline as there was no MAO to breakdown the tyramine in the diet.
