  • 4. confirm directions / route
  • 5. search the transport vehicle
300

How does the Limbic system respond to problem solving? 

Rushed time frame/ limited options/ faster pace

300

What is Neo Cortex responsible for? 

(language of thought and verbal expression)

Language, abstract thought, imagination, consciousness, reasoning, rationalizing

300
