| Areas of the cortex located behind the temples containing the neurons responsible for hearing and meaningful speech (sometimes even taste, but not as active as the parietal lobe) | |
| Increase in wrinkling of cortex as the size of the brain increases - real measure of a human’s intelligence. | |
| The basic cell that makes up the nervous system, sends and receives messages within that system | |
| Yenee sucks (Type true or false) | |
| Division the the PNS consisting of nerves tht carry information from the senses to the CNS then to the voluntary muscles | |
| Areas within each lobe involved in coordination, higher mental processes | |
| Chemical substances that block or reduce a cell's response to the action of other chemicals or neurotransmitters | |
| In ___, the results of multiple presentations of a stimulus are compared in an EEG | |
| Chemical found within the synaptic vesicles that when released has an effect on the next cell | |
| Major excitatory involved in learning, memory formation, and nervous system development | |
| The cell body of the neuron responsible for maintaining the life of the cell | |
| Process by which neurotransmitters are taken back into synaptic vesicles | |
| Tubelike structure that carries messages to the other cells | |
| Condition resulting from damage in ___'s area causing an inability in understanding or producing meaningful language | |
| Outer wrinkled covering of the brain | |
| Saclike structure found within the synaptic knob containing chemicals | |
| Synapse at which a neurotransmitter causes the receiving cell to stop firing | |
| Branches at the end of the axon | |
| Part of the ANS tat restors the body to normal function after arousal and is responsible for day-to-day functioning organs and glands | |
| Special cells found within tissues of the body and are capable of manufacturing new cells in cases of wear and tear of old cells | |
| These fatty cells coat the axons of the neurons for insulation, protection, and speed in neural impulse | |
| Brain imaging method that uses radio waves and magnetic fields of the body to produce a detailed image of the brain | |
| Chemical substances that mimic or enhance the effects of a neurotransmitter on the receptor sites of the next cell, increasing or decreasing the activity of that cell | |
| Excitatory or inhibitory involved in movement and feelings of pleasure | |
| Refers to the fact that neurons either fire completely or not fire at all | |
| Excitatory involved in arousal or mood | |
| The first large swelling of the brain found at the top of the spinal cord resposible for life-sustaining functions like breathing, swallowing and heart rate | |
| Influences our motivation, emotional control, fear response and interpretations of nonverbal emotional expressions | |
