Summary Introduction
To determine: The things an individual can do to enhance the development of its child’s intellectual abilities.
Introduction: The highly developed brain and spinal cord make up the central nervous system. These organs are responsible for integrating incoming information and determining appropriate responses. Cerebrum, which is the largest and the most important part of the human brain, acts as the center of intellect. Association areas are specifically responsible for an individual’s intellect.

As the anterior end of the neural tube develops, it enlarges into the primary vesicles that establish the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. Those structures continue to develop throughout the rest of embryonic development and into adolescence. They are the basis of the structure of the fully developed adult brain. How would you describe the difference in the relative sizes of the three regions of the brain when comparing the early (25th embryonic day) brain and the adult brain?arrow_forward
- Compared with the nearest evolutionary relative, the chimpanzee, the human has a brain that is huge. At a point in the past, a common ancestor gave rise to the two species of humans and chimpanzees. That evolutionary history is long and is still an area of intense study. But something happened to increase the size of the human brain relative to the chimpanzee. Read this article (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/hugebrain) in which the author explores the current understanding of why this happened. According to one hypothesis about the expansion of brain size, what tissue might have been sacrificed so energy was available to grow our larger brain? Based on what you know about that tissue and nervous tissue, why would there be a trade-off between them in terms of energy use?arrow_forwardI want the solution very quickly within 15 minutesarrow_forwardTest Your Understanding 15 SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND SOCIETY Why do you think that a variety of effective methods of male contraception have not yet been developed?
