Chapter 41, Problem 13TYU
Summary Introduction
To hypnotize: The advantage of convergence and divergence neural circuit from the perspective of adaptation.
Introduction: Nervous system is the arrangement of neurons in a particular pathway. The actions of the body are controlled by the nervous system. This arrangement of neurons in the body in a specific pathway is termed as neural circuit

D.Sensory neurons receive a stimulus either directly or from a specialized sensory receptor cell, and pass the signal on to the CNS
ACCORDING TO: New Nerve Cell for the Adult Brain By: Gerd Kempermann and Fred Gage
What is the previous evidence that stem cells did exist in the adult brain? (This should be dated, with a brief explanation of the studies)
How do we study neurogenesis in animals? In humans?
Where can we find stem cells in the brain? What is so important about these brain structures? (For example: Why do we find excess stem cells in these structures, but not in others?)
How can stem cell proliferation be inhibited?
How might neurogenesis be related to learning and memory?

- 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?arrow_forwardMatch each item with its description. ___ gray matter a. start of brain, spinal cord ___ neurotransmitter b. connects the hemispheres ___ pons c. protects brain and spinal ___ corpus callosum cord from some toxins ___ cerebral cortex d. type of signaling molecule ___ neural tube e. brain's myelin makers ___ oligodendrocytes f. brain stem structure ___ blood-brain g. controls language, reasoning barrier h. cell bodies and dendritesarrow_forwardCompared with the nearest evolutionary relative, the chimpanzee, the human has a brain that is huge. At a point in the past, a common ancestor gave rise to the two species of humans and chimpanzees. That evolutionary history is long and is still an area of intense study. But something happened to increase the size of the human brain relative to the chimpanzee. Read this article (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/hugebrain) in which the author explores the current understanding of why this happened. According to one hypothesis about the expansion of brain size, what tissue might have been sacrificed so energy was available to grow our larger brain? Based on what you know about that tissue and nervous tissue, why would there be a trade-off between them in terms of energy use?arrow_forward
- 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 postsynapticarrow_forwardThe first neurons are predicted to have evolved in ________ in the form of ________ ________. a. dragon flies, visual detection b. cnidarian, cortical processing c. cnidarian, sensory cilia d. grass hopper, antennaearrow_forwardIntro to Neuroscience Q: 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.

- Visit this site (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/nervetissue3) to learn about how nervous tissue is composed of neurons and glial cells. The neurons are dynamic cells with the ability to make a vast number of connections and to respond incredibly quickly to stimuli and to initiate movements based on those stimuli. They are the focus of intense research as failures in physiology can lead to devastating illnesses. Why are neurons only found in animals? Based on what this article says about neuron function, why wouldnt they be helpful for plants or microorganisms?arrow_forwardTest Your Understanding Know and Comprehend 3.
