Responda
- True
- False
Questão 2
Questão
Which of the following statements about the manifestation of anxiety/fear symptoms is not true?
Responda
-
Lesions of the medical prefrontal cortex increases the risk for anxiety.
-
Inhibition of the orbitofrontal cortex leads to the hyperactivity of the amygdala in the presence of a potential threat which produces fear responses.
-
In the innate fear response, the thalamus is activated by the amygdala with sequential prefrontal cortex activation leading to the fear manifestation.
-
The amygdala mediates key functions in the processing of fear and threat-related information.
