Peyton felt strange when she awoke one morning. She could not hold a pen in her right hand when trying to write an entry in her diary, and her muscles were noticeably weaker on the right side of her body. Additionally, her husband noticed that she was slurring her speech, so he took her to the emergency room. What does the ER physician suspect has occurred? Where in the brain might the physician suspect that abnormal activity or perhaps a lesion is located, and why?
The 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…
