Theory
the mind and brain are separate entities, therefore studying the brain tells us nothing about the mind
What is Dualism?
Connect neurons in brain and spinal cord
What are internerons
glial cells that produce Milan in the rest of the nervous system (peripheral)
What are Schwan cells and what do they do?
The two cerebral hemispheres, the thalamus and the hypothalamus
What are the major structures of the forebrain?
The inferior colliculus and the superior colliculus, and the substantial and Niagara
What structures are in the mid brain?
The idea that the mind and brain are not connected, but they do communicate an idea proposed by Renée de car
What is the physical model of behavior?
Contains the cell, gives it shape, and controls the movement of molecules in and out.
What does the phospholipid bilayer do?
They produced Milan in the brain and spinal cord (CNS) they also have many terminals that extend out of them. They are able to myelinate many axons.
What are Oligodendrocytes and what do they do?
They are larger structures dominating the brains appearance dorsal part of the brain are covered by the cortex, it can be separated into the left and the right side
What are the cerebral hemispheres?
Helps guide movement and fixation of cases doesn't actually process vision our eyes move and also stops our eyes from drifting
and
They help locate the direction of sounds where hearing is coming from and process the direction of sound between right and left here
What is the function of the superior collicular? (above)
What is the function of the inferior colliculi (below)
This is the process of gathering information throughout observation, and then drawing conclusions on it.
What's empiricism?
Receptors which open channels indirectly through a second messenger, they don't open up when the neurotransmitter binds
What are metabotropic receptors?
During fetal development, they formed scaffolds that guide knew neurons to their correct destinations
What does the radial glia do?
Is located on a single gyrus in the brain, and a corresponds to all of our bodies motor functions, it's organized like the body so functions that are, functions that require more movement will take up more surface area, it is located just in front of the central sulcus
What is the motor cortex do?
It regulates voluntary movement, reward functions and cognitive planning
What is the substantial Niagara do?
The brain can function as an undifferentiated whole, states that there's zero localization, and that all brain function overlaps
What's equipotentiallity?
It reduces capacitance
Signal regeneration at nodes of Ranvier
uses less energy, so our refractory period is shorter
What are the benefits of the Myelin sheath?
It provides energy to neurons and responds to injury and disease by removing cellular debris
What does microglia do?
This is also located in the frontal lobe and is responsible for the language production, helps us plan what to say, and how to say it
What is Brock's area?
The ponds recticular formation medulla and cerebellum
What is in the hindbrain?
The different types of factors that make up are genetics things like genes, DNA chromosomes
What's the genetic code?
Sodium channel, opening produces partial depolarization of the dendrites and cell body, This happens to the postsynaptic neuron, bringing it closer to an action potential.
What is an excitatory postsynaptic potential? (EPSP)
that maintain brain homeostasis, provide structural support to neurons, and regulate the blood-brain barrier. They support neurons by supplying nutrients, clearing neurotransmitters, managing ion balance, and trigger the formations of
What do astrocytes do?
These are the little holes in the brain that have no cells and are filled with cerebral spinal fluid, they give the brains and neurons the nutrients they need to take bad stuff out
What are the ventricles?
It's the largest portion is in the middle and behind brain. It's why we have a brain stem and it helps regulate and keep body functioning through processes like muscle tone sleep than arousal.
What's the reticular formation do
