Textbook Question
Chapter 13, Problem 7RQ
(a) Make a rough sketch of a lateral view of the left cerebral hemisphere. (b) You may be thinking, "But I just can't draw!" So, name the hemisphere involved in most people's ability to draw. (c) On your drawing, locate the following areas, and identify their major functions: primary motor cortex, premotor cortex, somatosensory association area, primary visual area, anterior association area (prefrontal cortex), Broca's area.

(a) Make a rough drawing of the lateral aspect of the left cerebral hemisphere. (b) You may be thinking, “But I just can’t draw!” So, name the hemisphere involved with most people’s ability to draw. (c) On your drawing, locate the following areas and provide the major function of each: primary motor cortex, premotor cortex, somatosensory association cortex, primary somatosensory cortex, visual and auditory areas, prefrontal cortex, Wernicke’sand Broca’s areas.
A neurosurgeon probes a person’s brain to map its functions. The person is awake and feels no pain during this procedure. As each area of the brain is probed, the person perceives a different sensation, as described in the table. Which structure (or lobe) of the brain is being stimulated in each scenario? [You do not need to explain why. Just state the lobe or structure]
a) “I can hear a radio playing” _____________________
b) “I can see a flash of bright light” _____________________
c) “I can smell the flowers in my garden” ______________________
d) “I remember a happy moment from my childhood” ____________________
e) “I can feel pain in my foot” ____________________
f) “My finger just twitched” ____________________
Describe the functional problems that would be experienced by a person in which these fiber tracts have been cut: (a) lateral spinothalamic, (b) ventral and dorsal spinocerebellar, (c) tectospinal.

- Which of the following statements about the basal nuclei are correct? (SELECT ALL THAT APPLY) a.) The basal nuclei get information from only parts of the cerebral cortex that are involved in movement planning b.) Parkinson's disease is a condition that affects the normal functioning of the basal nuclei c.) The basal nuclei have an indirect pathway that tends to excite and thus increase the activity of the output nuclei (The Globus pallidus internal segment and substantia nigra pars reticulata) of the basal nuclei. d.) The basal nuclei have a direct pathway that tends to inhibit and thus reduce the activity of the output nuclei (The Globus pallidus internal segment and substantia nigra pars reticulata) of the basal nuclei.arrow_forwardFollowing a stroke Dr. Z was unable to recognize the members of his family when shown their portrait.
