Introduction

Sam is an individual who has stayed in coma for 16 years and intrigued Naci and coworkers with questions regarding stimulation and existence of mind. He was passed via a brain scanner for measuring electrical activity in the brain, which seemed to be increasing as well as decreasing at one time in healthy participants as well as Sam.

Explanation of Solution

Suggested response

The opening story relating to Sam was to exemplify that mind is concealed from the view as Sam who would not respond to any stimulation, passed via the brain scanner with similar electrical activity as in healthy participants, which enhanced during tense periods and decreased when there was no possibility of danger. It indicated that Sam was not only looking at images or hearing soundtrack, but was also responding to the movie's plot shown to him.

Therefore, the brain activity exhibited by Sam, thus, illustrated that he was consciously aware, thereby, concluding that there was activity going on in his brain and that he seems to have a mental life.
