GRADED A+
◍ non-declarative (implicit) memory.
Answer: cannot be verbalized; difficult to put into words. demonstrated
through behavior-moto (skill) memory, conditioning, sensitization,
habituation
◍ declarative (explicit) memory.
Answer: Can be consciously recalled and verbalized (facts and
events)-semantic memory-episodic memory
◍ semantic memory.
Answer: general knowledge and facts (e.g., capital of France). recall
depends on association
◍ episodic memory.
Answer: the collection of past personal experiences that occurred at a
particular time and place
◍ the neuron pictured below, is best described as.
Answer: multipolar
◍ immediate memory.
Answer: the ability to hold something in mind for just a FEW SECONDS
(mental snapshot)
◍ true or false, explain why the state is false : Bipolar neurons have a central
cell body with two extensions.
Answer: true
,◍ List the phases of an action potential in order.
Answer: 1. resting potential 2. depolarization3.repolarizarion4.resting
condition
◍ true or false , if false explain why the statement is false: the central nervous
system consists of the brain and spinal cord.
Answer: true
◍ working memory.
Answer: limited, minutes, holds and manipulates info in real time (e.g.,
repeating phone number)
◍ name and describe what is occurring in the neurocell membrane in section 2
of the diagram. include the charge of the membrane during this phase.
Answer: deprivation, sodium gates are opened and the sodium floods into
the axon admits the depolarization of the action potential, causing the charge
voltage to go from 0 to +40 mV
◍ This part of a reflex is inside the CNS, made up of one or more synapses..
Answer: integration center
◍ short-term memory.
Answer: limited, minutes to hours, temporary storage
◍ match the following lobes of the brain with the correct function.
Answer: temporal - contains sensory areas for hearing and smelling frontal-
contain higher levels ex..pariteal - receives sensory info from body receptors
occipital - interprets visual input
◍ which of the following structures of the spinal cord contains the cell bodies
of afferent neurons.
Answer: dorsal root ganglion
◍ what is true about the flexor withdrawl reflex.
Answer: A&d (IT DOES NOT INVOLVE INTERNEURONS & THE
EFFECT OF THE REFLEX IS TO CREATE A CO-CONTRACTION OF 2
MUSCLES
, ◍ long-term memory.
Answer: Unlimited capacity , involves permanent anatomical changes ( new
synapses, protein synthesis
◍ Label the nerves (A-C) in the figure below:A: _________________B:
_________________C: _________________.
Answer: a. lateral femoral cutaneous b- femoral nerve c. saphenous
◍ which of the following is most likely a symptom of ASL.
Answer: impaired ability to swallow
◍ memory consolidation.
Answer: process of transferring memories from short-term to long-term
storage. INFLUENCED BY: rehearsal, alertness/emotional
state(norepinephrine), association of new with old info, and sleep
◍ contralateral control.
Answer: each hemisphere controls motor movement and receives sensory
input from the opposite side of the body.
◍ right hemisphere (specializations).
Answer: recognition of faces and emotions, visual, and spatial activities
◍ left hemisphere.
Answer: language processing ( speaking, writing, understanding) and
analytical/ logical abilities
◍ describe the function of the parasympathetic nervous system.
Answer: aka the housekeeper system because it promotes all of the internal
responses in the relaxed state. Parasympathetic stimulation causes the pupil
of the eye to get smaller and aids the lenses of the eyes to focus on close
items. it helps with the digestion of food and also helps with the beating of
the heart and slowing it
◍ which of the following visual conditions is caused by damage to the
abducens nerve?.
Answer: diplopia
