why is the limbic system name as the emotional-visceral system?
You are walking to class, pondering the intricacies of physiology, when you trip over an uneven place in the sidewalk and fall. Unhurt but embarrassed and angry, you jump up and glance around to see if anyone is watching. From your knowledge of neuroanatomy and function, explain how the following areas of the brain might be involved in this scenario:
cerebrum
cerebellum
limbic system
After a stroke, Shekina has difficulty holding a pencil in her left hand correctly and
can't write her name, but she has no difficulty with her balance or body posture.
Where would you predict the damage to be in her CNS?
Left rubrospinal tract, below the medulla
Right corticospinal tract, above the medulla
O Left corticospinal tract, above the medulla
Right vestibulospinal tract, above the medulla

ANSWER OPTIONS: Parasympathetic, Sympathetic, BOTHarrow_forwardEpilepsy is a neurological disorder that disrupts neural activities and causes recurrent seizures. About 70% of people with epilepsy can be treated with medication to prevent seizures from occurring. If medication does not work, surgery is an option for some patients. One of the procedures involves cutting the brain so that the seizures cannot be spread to other parts of the brain. A common goal of the surgical procedure to treat epileptic seizures is to reduce the connection between the two hemispheres of the brain. By cutting through this structure, an epileptic seizure occurring on one side of the brain will not be spread to the other side. Identify the structure that connects the two hemispheres of the brain.arrow_forward
