Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 40

Frage
The Cerebellum ("little brain") coordinates movement - fine motor skills (e.g., writing, typing) and other higher order processes e.g., auditory to visual attention switching and timing, affected by alcohol (nose touch test), damage causes cerebellar dysfunction
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 43

Frage
The Forebrain contains two hemispheres (left and right), receives sensory information (contralateral), controls muscles (contralateral)
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 44

Frage
The Thalamus is a two lobed structure, superior to the brainstem, responsible for relaying sensory information (expect olfactory)
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 45

Frage
The information between the thalamus and the cerebral cortex is called a thalamocortical loop
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 46

Frage
The Hypothalamus is ventral to the thalamus, affects the pituitary gland's release of hormones, in turn affects a range of behaviours i.e., eating drinking, temperature regulation, sexual behaviour, fighting and activity level
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 47

Frage
The Pituitary gland is an endocrine gland (produces hormones), attached to the base of the hypothalamus, in response to signals from the hypothalamus, produces hormones that are carried via the blood stream to the organs in the body
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 48

Frage
Basal ganglia are groups of structures lateral to the thalamus i.e., Caudate nucleus, Putamen, Globus pallidus; mainly involved in voluntary movement, damage impairs movement (e.g., Parkinson's and Huntington's disease)
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 49

Frage
