Textbook Question
Chapter 38.2, Problem 3CC
WHAT IF? Two groups of individuals have CNS damage. In one group, the damage has resulted in a coma (a prolonged state of unconsciousness). In the other group, it has caused total paralysis (a loss of skeletal muscle function throughout the body). Relative to the position of the midbrain and pons, where is the likely site of damage in each group? Explain.

- Visit this site (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/neurolab) to see a virtual neurophysiology lab, and to observe electrophysiological processes in the nervous system, where scientists directly measure the electrical signals produced by neurons. Often, the action potentials occur so rapidly that watching a screen to see them occur is not helpful. A speaker is powered by the signals recorded from a neuron and it pops each time the neuron fires an action potential. These action potentials are firing so fast that it sounds like static on the radio. Electrophysiologists can recognize the patterns within that static to understand what is happening.

- Neuroscience Question: Which of the following statements ACCURATELY describe spinal cord organization. α-motor neurons are organized from lateral to media such that those found towards the medial section of the spinal cord controls the distal muscles. Lumbar spinal cord enlargement is observed where neurons that innervate the legs and feet are located Neuronal cell bodies (somas) of neurons that innervate single muscles are only found in a single spinal cord segment. Muscles of the trunk are represented medially while muscles of arms and hands are represented laterally Group of answer choices 1, 2, 4 2, 3, 4 2, 4 4 only 1,2,3,4 Here is my reasoning: Please you be the judge if this is correct! α-motor neurons are organized from lateral to medial such that those found towards the medial section of the spinal cord control the distal muscles.

Explain how this works, and why this is interesting and useful?arrow_forwardWatch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/basalnuclei2) 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 indirect pathway is the longer pathway through the system that results in decreased activity in the cerebral cortex, and therefore less motor activity. The indirect pathway has an extra couple of connections in it, including disinhibition of the subthalamic nucleus. What is the end result on the thalamus, and therefore on movement initiated by the cerebral cortex?arrow_forward
- 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?arrow_forwardWhich of the following could be elements of cyto architecture, as related to Brodmanns microscopic studies of the cerebral coitex? connections to the cerebellum activation by visual stimuli number of neurons per square millimeter number of gyri or sulciarrow_forward4 Which of the following would be an example of spatial summation that produces a depolarizing effect at the postsynaptic neuron?
