25 Questions

1. Cerebral Cortex that functions to direct movements toward a goal or to perform a task - such as grasping an object - lying posterior to the central sulcus and beneath the parietal bone at the top of the skull.

2. Decrease in the activity of a neuron or brain area.

3. Group of organisms that can interbreed.

4. Condition in which a person can display some rudimentary behaviors - such as smiling - or utter a few words but is otherwise not conscious.

5. Map of the neocortex based on the organization - structure - and distribution of the cells.

6. Roof (area above the ventricle) of the midbrain; its functions are sensory processing - particular visual and auditory - and the production of orienting movements.

7. Quandary of explaining a nonmaterial mind in command of a material body.

8. Major structure of the forebrain - consisting of two virtually identical hemispheres (left and right) and responsible for most conscious behavior.

9. A groove in brain matter - usually a groove found in the neocortex or cerebellum.

10. Neurosurgery in which electrodes implanted in the brain stimulate a targeted area with a low-voltage electrical current to facilitate behavior.

11. Sudden appearance of neurological symptom as a result of severe interruption of blood flow.

12. Area of the skin supplied with afferent nerve fibers by a single spinal-cord dorsal root.

13. Surgical removal of a cerebral hemisphere.

14. Process in which maturation is delayed - and so an adult retains infant characteristics; idea derived from the observation that newly evolved species resemble the young of their common ancestors.

15. Part of the PNS that regulates the functioning of internal organs and glands.

16. All the neurons in the body located outside the brain and the spinal cord; provides sensory and motor connections to and from the CNS

17. Floor (area below the ventricle) of the midbrain; a collection of nuclei with movement-related - species-specific - and pain-perception functions.

18. The bones - or segments - that form the spinal column.

19. Learned behaviors that are passed on from on generation to the next through teaching and experience.

20. The general principle that sensory fibers are located dorsally and motors fibers are located ventrally.

21. Large collection of axons coursing together outside of the central nervous system.

22. Part of the autonomic nervous system; acts in opposition to the sympathetic division- for example - preparing the body to rest and digest by reversing the alarm response or stimulating digestion.

23. One of four cavities in the brain that contain cerebrospinal fluid that cushions the brain and may play a role in maintaining brain metabolism.

24. General term referring to primates that walk upright - including all forms of humans - living and extinct.

25. Outer layer of brain-tissue surface composed of neurons; the human cerebral cortex is heavily folded.
