Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/lumbarpuncture) that describes the procedure known as the lumbar puncture, a medical procedure used to sample the CSF. Because of the anatomy of the CNS, it is a relative safe location to insert a needle. Why is the lumbar puncture performed in the lower lumbar area of the vertebral column?
Watch the video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/2brains) titled The Man With Two Brains to see the neuroscientist Michael Gazzaniga introduce a patient he has worked with for years who has had his corpus callosum cut, separating his two cerebral hemispheres. A few tests are run to demonstrate how this manifests in tests of cerebral function. Unlike normal people, this patient can perform two independent tasks at the same time because the lines of communication between the right and left sides of his brain have been removed. Whereas a person with an intact corpus callosum cannot overcome the dominance of one hemisphere over the other, this patient can. If the left cerebral hemisphere is dominant in the majority of people, why would right-handedness be most common?
Which of the following brain regions is not correctly matched to itsfunction?a. The medulla oblongata regulates heartbeat, breathing, and bloodpressure.b. The cerebellum coordinates voluntary muscle movements.c. The thalamus secretes melatonin, which regulates daily bodyrhythms.d. The midbrain acts as a refl ex center for visual, auditory, andtactile responses.
Emergency room doctors often shine a light into the eyes of patients with head injuries to test their pupillary reflex. The structure that relays the information between the optic nerve and the motor neuron, and the division of the nervous system that the structure is part of , respectively are: Select one: a. an interneuron and the peripheral nervous system b. the occipital lobe and the peripheral nervous system c. the occipital lobe and the central nervous system d. an interneuron and the central nervous system
Which of the following statements about the cerebral cortex is FALSE? A) The cortex in primates (and especially humans) has more sulci and gyri than in lower mammals. B) The neurons in the cortex are organized into groups of 80 to 100 interconnected cells, arranged in vertical columns. C) The human cortex is arranged into six layers of neurons (although a particular layer may be absent in some areas). D) The cerebral hemispheres are organized into five lobes, named after the skull bone covering them.
Let’s examine a neural pathway that involved three (3) neurons in sequence: one propagates an action potential from threshold stimulus of receptor to spinal cord; second propagates action potential superiorly to brain stem; and third propagates action potential from brain stem to part of cerebral cortex involved in perceiving the stimulus. Which of the following is correct classification of these neurons: a. all three are presynaptic b. first is presynaptic, other two are postsynaptic c. first and second are presynaptic, third is postsynaptic d. first and second are presynaptic, second and third are postsynaptic e. all three are postsynaptic
Match the term on the left with its correct description in the column on the right. _____ Amygdala a. Serves as the main “entryway” intothe cerebral cortex_____ Thalamus b. Contains the pyramids where thecorticospinal tracts decussate_____ Hippocampus c. Portion of the limbic systeminvolved in emotion_____ Midbrain d. Regulates homeostasis, the autonomicnervous system, the endocrinesystem, and the sleep/wake cycle_____ Medulla e. Consists of three lobes and coordinatesmovementoblongata_____ Hypothalamus f. Portion of the limbic system;involved in memory_____ Cerebellum g. Middle portion of brainstem; plays arole in movement, sleep, and arousal _____ Pons h. First component of the brainstem;participates in reflexes, sensation,and movement
What are the similarities and differences of autonomic and somatic nervous system in terms of function? Pls explain in sentences. And dont just copy paste from google thanks.
A) The neuron labelled "D" in the figure is what class of functional neuron?: 3rd-order? lower motor neurone? upper motor neurone? 2nd-order? bipolar? unipolar? B) The message in the pleural pathway in figure 3 comes from the: occipital lobe? skeletal muscle? somatosensoty cortex? temporal lobe? receptors? parietal lobe? frontal lobe?
