Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 40

Pregunta
The Cerebellum ("little brain") coordinates movement - fine motor skills (e.g., writing, typing) and other higher order processes e.g., auditory to visual attention switching and timing, affected by alcohol (nose touch test), damage causes cerebellar dysfunction
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 41

Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 42

Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 43

Pregunta
The Forebrain contains two hemispheres (left and right), receives sensory information (contralateral), controls muscles (contralateral)
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 44

Pregunta
The Thalamus is a two lobed structure, superior to the brainstem, responsible for relaying sensory information (expect olfactory)
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 45

Pregunta
The information between the thalamus and the cerebral cortex is called a thalamocortical loop
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 46

Pregunta
The Hypothalamus is ventral to the thalamus, affects the pituitary gland's release of hormones, in turn affects a range of behaviours i.e., eating drinking, temperature regulation, sexual behaviour, fighting and activity level
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 47

Pregunta
The Pituitary gland is an endocrine gland (produces hormones), attached to the base of the hypothalamus, in response to signals from the hypothalamus, produces hormones that are carried via the blood stream to the organs in the body
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 48

Pregunta
Basal ganglia are groups of structures lateral to the thalamus i.e., Caudate nucleus, Putamen, Globus pallidus; mainly involved in voluntary movement, damage impairs movement (e.g., Parkinson's and Huntington's disease)
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 49

Pregunta
Basal forebrain are collection of structures on the ventral surface of the forebrain, including nucleus basalis; involved in arousal and the sleep-wake cycle, linked to cognitive decline and degeneration in Alzheimer's disease
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 50
