What is an EEG? Back to Board Having our heads examined 20- Scan used to reveal brain damage; series of x-ray photographs taken from different angles. What is a CT scan? Back to Board Having our heads examined 30- Type of scan used to identify which specific brain areas are most active during a particular mental task. What is an fMRI? Back to Board Having our heads examined 40- The best type of scan to use in order to detect enlarged fluidfilled brain regions in patients with schizophrenia. What is an MRI? Back to Board Having our heads examined 50- Scan that shows visual display of brain activity where radioactive glucose goes while brain performs a given task. What is a PET scan? Back to Board Having our heads examined 100- Naturally or experimentally caused destruction of the brain tissue. What is a lesion? Back to Board Lower-level Brain Structures 10- Located at the base of the brain stem and controls life supporting functions. Damaged = Death. What is the Medulla? Back to Board Lower-level Brain Structures 20- Nerve network located up and down the spinal cord. Controls level of alertness. Damaged = Coma What is the reticular formation? Back to Board Lower-level Brain Structures 30- Controls balance, muscle coordination & memories on how to use your body. Damage = loss of fine motor skills. What is the cerebellum? Back to Board Lower-level Brain Structures 40- Regulates eating, drinking, body temperature and the “fight or flight” reaction to stress. What is the hypothalamus? Back to Board Lower-level Brain Structures 50- Processes new memories for permanent storage. What is the Hippocampus? Back to Board Lower-level Brain Structures 100- Controls emotional responses such as FEAR and ANGER. What is the Amygdala? Back to Board The Cerebral Cortex 10- Demarcation that divides the brain into two hemispheres. What is the longitudinal fissure? Back to Board The Cerebral Cortex 20- Lobe used for processing and mathematical reasoning and houses the sensory strip. What is the Parietal Lobe? Back to Board The Cerebral Cortex 30- Lobe that registers hearing and some speech functions. What is the Temporal Lobe? Back to Board The Cerebral Cortex 40- The control and information processing center; contains over 30 billion nerve cells. What is the Cerebral Cortex? Back to Board The Cerebral Cortex 50- Lobe used for making plans and judgments and houses the motor strip. What is the Frontal Lobe? Back to Board The Cerebral Cortex 100- Lobe used to interpret visual information and is located in the back of your brain. What is the Occipital Lobe? Back to Board The Hemispheres 10- Located in the left frontal lobe and is used for expressive language and muscle movement. What is a Broca’s area? Back to Board The Hemispheres 20- Impairment of language, usually caused by left hemisphere damage. What is Aphasia? Back to Board The Hemispheres 30- Transforms visual representations into an auditory code. What is the Angular Gyrus? Back to Board The Hemispheres 40- Located in the left temporal lobe; controls receptive language (our ability to understand what someone is saying). What is Wernicke’s area? Back to Board The Hemispheres 50- Hemisphere where the brain processes facial recognition and emotional processing. What is the Right Hemisphere? Back to Board The Hemispheres 100- Large band of neural fibers connecting the 2 hemispheres and carrying messages between them. What is the Corpus callosum? Back to Board Random ?’s 10- Name of surgery performed to help patients with extreme epilepsy minimize their seizures. What is Split-brain surgery? Back to Board Random ?’s 20- System that includes the hypothalamus, hippocampus, pituitary gland and the amygdala. What is the Limbic system? Back to Board Random ?’s 30- Rat becomes severely overweight (obese) due to over stimulation in this area of the brain. What is the hypothalamus? Back to Board Random ?’s 40- Person experiences amnesia due to damage of this area in the brain. What is the Hippocampus? Back to Board Random ?’s 50- Cells in the nervous system that support, nourish, and protect neurons. What are the Glial cells? Back to Board Random ?’s 100- Areas in the cerebral cortex that are not involved in primary motor or sensory functions; are involved in higher mental functions such as memory, thinking, speaking, etc. What are the association areas?
