Membra = -40 -60 -80 Time 38. What is synaptic integration? Name and provide an example for the types of integration discussed in this course. (4pts) 39. We did a case study in that focused on Eric. Eric has retinitis pigmentosa, in particular Usher's Syndrome (pts). a. Describe the type of visual impairment that Eric had in his visual field test. b. Given what you know about the visual system and the areas of Eric's vision that was affected, what type of sensory cells were primarily affected. c. What type of vision would be most impacted by Eric's condition: scotopic, mesopic or photopic? Why?

As a person ages, their ability to focus on near objects (accommodation) changes. If a person is already myopic (near-sighted), why would corrective lenses not be necessary to read a book or computer screen?
Alzheimer’s disease is thought to cause a DECREASE in the amount of acetylcholine (ACH) being released into the synaptic cleft in specific parts of the brain. What would be a possible treatment for this disease? (So basically- what would be a possible way to increase the amount of ACH in the synaptic cleft?)

What is the effect? 1.Neurons in the cerebral cortex will not be affected. 2.Pre-synaptic neurons can cause action potentials in the post-synaptic neuron. 3.all of the answers are correct 4.Neurotransmitters can not cross the synapse.

The medication helps to improve brain functioning and memory. 1.What is the function of cholinesterase in the synapse? 2. How does a cholinesterase inhibitor work in a synapse? 3. Explain the function of cholinesterase inhibitor in increasing brain functioning and memory. Please include the URL of the website that you used to answer these questions.
Trying to understand this part of the article “As white matter integrity did not return to baseline levels for any inter-injury interval (and did not trend towards returning to baseline levels in the case of the optic tract), it is possible that the window of vulnerability associated with our model may never close.” Based on the quote, what did not return when white matter integrity did not return?
