Learning and memory

Learning is defined as a relatively permanent and irreversible adaptive change in behavior. It always results from experience. The ability of an organism to store and recall the effects, sensations, and knowledge gained through learning and experience is called memory.

The part of the brain that is responsible for coordination during movement is the ______. a. limbic system b. thalamus c. cerebellum d. parietal lobe
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/whitematter) to learn about the white matter in the cerebrum that develops during childhood and adolescence. This is a composite of MRI images taken of the brains of people from 5 years of age through 20 years of age, demonstrating how the cerebrum changes. As the color changes to blue, the ratio of gray matter to white matter changes. The caption for the video describes it as less gray matter, which is another way of saying more white matter. If the brain does not finish developing until approximately 20 years of age, can teenagers be held responsible for behaving badly?
Watch this animation (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/braindevel) to examine the development of the brain, starting with the neural tube. As the anterior end of the neural tube develops, it enlarges into the primary vesicles that establish the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. Those structures continue to develop throughout the rest of embryonic development and into adolescence. They are the basis of the structure of the fully developed adult brain. How would you describe the difference in the relative sizes of the three regions of the brain when comparing the early (25th embryonic day) brain and the adult brain?
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/basalnuclei1) to learn about the basal nuclei (also known as the basal ganglia), which have two pathways that process information within the cerebrum. As shown in this video, the direct pathway is the shorter pathway through the system that results in increased activity in the cerebral cortex and increased motor activity. The direct pathway is described as resulting in disinhibition of the thalamus. What does disinhibition mean? What are the two neurons doing individually to cause this?
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/3Dmovies) to learn about the side effects of 3-D movies. As discussed in this video, movies that are shot in 3-D can cause motion sickness, which elicits the autonomic symptoms of nausea and sweating. The disconnection between the perceived motion on the screen and the lack of any change in equilibrium stimulates these symptoms. Why do you think sitting close to the screen or right in the middle of the theater makes motion sickness during a 3-D movie worse?
During surgery to remove a tumor from the occipital lobe ofthe left cerebrum, a surgeon must cut into the brain to reachthe tumor. List in order (starting with the covering skin) alllayers that must be “cut through” to reach the tumor.
Parkinson disease is the result of decreased levels of theneurotransmitter dopamine in the brain. However, thesepatients can’t take dopamine in drug form because the drugcannot reach the brain. What anatomic structure preventsthe drug from reaching the brain? How could these sameanatomic structures be beneficial to an individual underdifferent circumstances?
The prefrontal lobotomy is a drastic—and largely outof-practice—procedure used to disconnect that portion ofthe cerebral cortex from the rest of the frontal lobe andthe diencephalon as a psychiatric therapy. Why would thishave been thought necessary for someone with a potentiallyuncontrollable behavior?
The part of the diencephalon that regulates hunger,weight, water and electrolyte balance, sleep andwakefulness, temperature, arterial blood pressure,heart rate, production of substances that stimulatethe pituitary gland, and movement and secretion inareas of the digestive tract is the .a. thalamusb. pineal glandc. infundibulumd. hypothalamus
Some survivors of disastrous events have post-traumaticstress disorder (PTSD). Symptoms include nightmaresabout the experience and suddenly feeling as if the eventis recurring. Brain-imaging studies of people with PTSDshowed that their hippocampus was shrunken and theiramygdala unusually active. Given these changes, whatother brain functions might be disrupted in PTSD?
Lower limbs are supplied by neurons from the ______ of thespinal cord.a. lumbosacral enlargementb. thoracic regionc. cervical enlargementd. All of these are correct.
