About neural development, evolution and ageing flashcards
GoConqr OriginalNeural development, evolution and ageing flashcards
These decks offer questions on topics from early neural development to the ageing brain. Mechanisms of neural development asks about stages of nervous system development and the neural tube. Axon guidance includes questions on Sperry’s and Weiss’s hypotheses and Sperry’s frog experiment.
For a starting point, try Mechanisms of neural development: its questions give you a sequence of stages to recall. Then use Axon guidance to focus on a particular part of development. The deck on nervous system evolution and Ageing Brain offer other directions to explore.
Revise with the decks
Work through a deck by answering each question before checking the card. Return to questions you found difficult and try explaining your answer in your own words. If you want a visual overview, switch to a mind map on the unit page; use a quiz there when you want a different way to check your recall. Choose a topic and work through its cards.
Frequently asked questions
Which flashcard deck should I start with?
Try Mechanisms of neural development if you want to recall the stages of nervous system development. Its questions also cover the neural tube. For a more focused topic, Axon guidance asks about Sperry’s and Weiss’s hypotheses and Sperry’s frog experiment.
Are the flashcards free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open and study without an account. A free account also lets you save quiz scores and make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes. The listed resources were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr.
Who are these flashcards for?
The collection is mainly university-level material. University students can use the questions to practise recalling neural development and related topics, while teachers can look for ready-made study material. The decks range from early nervous system development and axon guidance to evolution and ageing.
