These 3 types of Brain Imaging Technology are used in various pieces of research to observe the effects of drugs and stress on the brain.
What is MRI, CAT Scan, and fMRI?
200
According to Sapolsky, this hormones are released during stressful events.
What is Cortisol/Glucocorticoids, or Adrenaline?
200
These 2 hormones are intimately involved with Stress and have a large impact of the brains functions.
What are Adrenaline and Cortisol?
200
Having craving causes this to be activated. Or is it the other way around?
What is the Amygdala?

What is Adrenaline?
300
These stages of part of the General Adaptation Syndrome crated by Hans Seyle.
What are Alarm Response, Resistance, Exhaustion?
300
This area, part of the Reward Pathway, is affected by Dopamine.
What is the Nucleus Accumbens?
300
Breiter uses the fMRI, a brain imaging technology, to see these 2 areas of the brain.
What are Nucleus Accumbens and Amgydala?
300
This is one of the three principles defining the biological level of analysis.
What is Patterns of behavior are inherited; Animal research may inform understanding human behavior; or, cognition, emotion, and behavior are products of the anatomy and physiology of Nervous and Endocrine Systems?
400
This neurotransmitter is imitated by Nicotine, causing various neuroceptors to be activated.
What is Acetylcholine (ACH)?
400
This researcher found that the lower one was on the proverbial totem pole, the more health problems he or she had.
Who is Marmot or Sapolsky?
400
These 3 studies provide support for the effects of neurotransmission on behavior.
What are Breiter, Koob, Caspi, or Childress?
400

Who is Kendler?
400
This neurotransmitter is found in overabundance in the brains of Anorexics.
What is Serotonin?
500
These two parts of the brain work in tandem to relay information in response to stress and release ACTH to the adrenal glands.
What are the hypothalamus and pituitary gland?
500
These are the effects on the brain and memory that Breiter found while researching PTSD. Name all 3.
What are hippocampal apathy, reduction in memorial capabilities, and a decrease in the capabilities even when compared to hippocampi of similar size that did not undergo stress?
500
This researcher discovered that the Amygdala was invovled in cravings, but her research was slightly unethical. Name her and what was unethical about the experiment.
Who is Childress; former addicts were re-exposed to cocaine, a drug that is highly addictive and easy to relapse on.
500
The researhers Sperry & Gozzaniga discovered this information while doing research.
