Hippocampus
The Brain region where this is located?
What is the temporal lobe?
The amygdala is responsible for this emotion that results in fight or flight.
What is fear?
What is the prefrontal cortex?
The part of the brain that stops you from acting on first impulse.
What part of the brain works closely with the cerebellum to help coordinate voluntary movement?
The motor cortex
When the occipital processes, visual input, which senses primarily responsible for interpreting?
Vision and visual perception
The main purpose of this structure?
What is to form and organize new long-term memories?
The amygdala works with this part of the brain to help you remember things.
What is the hippocampus?
What is the pre-frontal cortex's role?
it acts as the brain’s control center, guiding decision-making, impulse control, planning, and socially appropriate behavior.
What role does the cerebellum play in classical conditioning, particularly in the eyeblink reflex?
It helps in the timing and learning of the condition response.
If the occipital is damaged, what sensory deficit is the most likely to occur?
Loss of visual processing or cortical blindness
This patient's hippocampus was removed, he could no longer form new memories?
Who is H.M (Henry Molaison)
The amygdala is also responsible for this strong emotion that you may feel when upset.
What is anger?
What does the PFC regulate to stop overreactions from the amygdala?
emotional regulation
Damage to the cerebellum has been linked to impairments in which physiological function related to understanding and predicting others behavior?
Social cognition
What type of rain processing happens when they occipital of detect motion, light, and color from the eyes?
Visual signal interpretation from the retina
The name hippocampus comes from greek words meaning this ocean creature?
What is a Seahorse?
The amygdala is part of this brain system which is responsible for memory and emotion.
What is the limbic system?
What function of the PFC lets you override urges coming from the emotional brain?
Cognitive control
Which psychological function, traditionally associated with the motor system, shows to also involve the cerebellum?
Cognitive processing
The occipital lobe senses process visual information to the parietal and temporal lobes. What is this distribution of visual data called?
Higher order, visual routing for object in spatial recognition
Damage to the hippocampus can cause this kind of amnesia?
What is anterograde amnesia?
If your amygdala has issues, you may struggle with this essential skill when seeing people.
What is facial recognition?
What process of the PFC allows you to hold a phone number in mind long enough to type it in?
Working memory
The cerebellum communicates with the prefrontal cortex to assist with what cognitive process involving timing and prediction?
Anticipatory timing used in planning actions
If the occipital lobe receives disrupted input from the optic nerve, what type of perception issue could occur?
Inaccurate or incomplete visual interpretation
