B Understanding the brain requires knowledge about many things, from the structure of the water molecule to the electrical and chemical properties of the brain. C Understanding the brain requires the study of the different species of the brain. D Understanding the brain requires the analysis of one approach at a time to yield a new synthesis.
Galen's study of sheep brains was the basis for a theory of brain function that prevailed for almost years. Which of the following represents this view?
A The heart as the center of intellect and the brain as the cooling system B Localization of brain function in the cerebrum and cerebellum C Mind—brain duality D Parceling the cerebrum into lobes 3. A Individually, human mental capacities exist in the mind that is outside the brain. B The mind is the same as the brain. C Both animals and people possess intellect and a God-given soul. D The pineal gland is a spiritual entity.
What notion was displaced by the concept of nerves being described as wires? A Nerves are channels that communicate with the brain by the movement of fluids.
B Muscles can be twitched when nerves are stimulated electrically and the brain itself may generate electricity. C Signals to the muscles causing movement use the same wires as those that register sensations from the skin. D Nerves conduct electrical signals to and from the brain.
The combined work of Bell and Magendie revealed a fundamental fact about the spinal nerves. A Spinal nerves are myelinated. B Spinal nerves are bundles of sensory and motor nerves, and in each sensory and motor nerve fiber, transmission is strictly one-way.
C Spinal nerves are not hollow tubes carrying fluid. D Both humans and animals have spinal nerves. Page 2 6. For what purpose did Franz Joseph Gall study the dimensions of the human head? A To understand the propensity for certain personality traits B To demonstrate equal participation of all regions of the brain in all cerebral functions C To show that nerves conduct electrical signals to and from the brain D To show that unique human mental capabilities exist outside the brain 7.
On what basis did Broca defend functional localization of the brain? A By establishing a relationship between the production of speech and the right frontal lobe B By establishing a relationship between the production of speech and the occipital lobe C By establishing a relationship between the production of speech and the left frontal lobe D By establishing a relationship between the production of speech and the cerebellum 8.
To whom can we attribute the theory that behavior is among the heritable traits that can develop? Which of the following is a correct explanation of a disorder that affects the nervous system? A Cerebral palsy is a motor disorder caused by damage to the cerebrum before, during, or soon after birth. B Epilepsy is a progressive disease that affects nerve conduction, characterized by episodes of weakness, lack of coordination, and speech disturbance.
C Stroke involves a loss of feeling and movement caused by traumatic damage to the spinal cord. D Alzheimer's disease is a severe psychotic illness characterized by delusions, hallucinations, and bizarre behavior. Page 3 A neuroscientist is investigating how different neural circuits in the brain analyze sensory information, form perceptions of the external world, make decisions, and execute movements. At what level of analysis is this research conducted?
What is the rationale behind the use of animal models to understand the human brain? A Animal brains are identical to human brains but only smaller in size. B Brain mechanisms that motivate any reaction are identical in animal and human brains. C The nervous systems of different species of animals and humans share many common mechanisms. D Animal brains are easier to obtain than human brains. How do neuroscientists identify the parts of the brain that are specialized for different behavioral functions related to the niche a species normally occupies?
A By studying the similarities in response pattern to fear in different species B By studying neurons one at a time C By comparing the specializations of the brains of different species D By systematically destroying each part of the brain and studying its implication At which level of analysis do neuroscientists study the different types of neurons and their functions? What is the difference between replication and verification? A Replication tests a hypothesis, whereas verification rechecks the hypothesis.
B Replication can only be done once, whereas verification can be done many times. C Replication is repeating the experiment in other subjects to rule out the possibility of chance. Absolutely YES! We do guarantee that you will pass your exams and tests. What type of questions will I get? Questions types may also vary from one test bank to another. We always recommend to download and review the sample chapter we provide. You can expect that the other chapters will have the same structure and the same type of questions.
How fast will I receive my test bank? You can download your test bank immediately after completing the order. Is this the original publishers test bank? D Understanding the brain requires the analysis of one approach at a time to yield a new synthesis.
