- Meningitis is an inflammation of the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord. Diagnosis involves making a “spinal tap” (lumbar puncture) and analyzing a sample of cerebrospinal fluid for signs of infection. Why analyze this fluid and not blood?arrow_forwardWhen their second child was born, Kiko and Taka were told their baby had spina bifida and would be kept in intensive care for a week. After that time, a “shunt” would be put in. Also, immediately after the birth, an operation was performed on the infant’s lower back. The parents were told that this operation went well but that their son would always be a “little weak in the ankles.” Explain the statements in quotation marks in more informative and precise language.arrow_forwardDescribe a scenario where someone would have a lesion of the corticospinal tract on one side of the spinal cord.arrow_forward

Which areas of the body will be affected?arrow_forwardThe limbic system is composed of several interconnected structures including the olfactory bulbs, amygdala, hypothalamus, hippocampus, parahippocampal gyrus, cingulate gyrus, subcallosal gyrus, septal nuclei, mammillary bodies, and the thalamus. Pair each of these structures with their function listed below: -This limbic area is active when you are trying to memorize the names of brain areas. It is also severely atrophied in people suffering from late stages of Alzheimer’s Disease. -This limbic area is active when you are watching something that makes you feel sad. -This limbic area is active when you feel thirsty. -When the activity of this limbic area is increased you feel a sense of pleasure. -When this limbic area is damaged it often results in patients experiencing anterograde amnesia. -Damage to this limbic structure while rare often results in patients going into a coma. -This cortical limbic structure plays a large role in motivation and movement and has recently been…arrow_forward
