- Marie is playing soccer with her friends. At one point, she is texting her sister instead of paying attention to the game. At that moment, Marie is hit hard in the back of the head with a soccer ball and is knocked unconscious. When she comes to, she explains that she saw flashes of light right when she was hit with the ball. How can you explain this phenomenon? Use the ideas of modality and labeled line coding to explain your answer.arrow_forwardOne finding that has emerged pertains to gender differences in expression of emotions. Although both genders are equally capable with expressing emotion, research suggests that males are better at expressing anger and females are better at expressing sadness and fear. In general, females are better decoders than males, even though no gender differences exist for encoding. Why do you think females learn to decode facial displays of emotion better than males?arrow_forwardWhat is the pathway followed by the nerve impulse starting from the gustatory receptors to several brain regions.?arrow_forward
- Is the shape of the lateral geniculate nucleus mostly similar in the mouse brain, or does it look different compared to the sheep brain? What about the size of the brain area relative to the total size of the brain? Is the brain area larger, smaller, or about the same size as it is in the sheep brain? *This is only one question, just asked in different ways for detail. Thanks in advance. Basically, I would like to know if brain parts differ from size (proportion) between mammals. In this case, the size between a sheep or mouse brain.arrow_forwardWhat is the action of the neurotransmitter that is released from photoreceptor cells on bipolar cells?arrow_forwardWhich of the following describe the myelination of the nervous system correctly? Please select all that apply. A) Caudal structures are myelinated before rostral structures. B) Myelination of the human central nervous system is not complete until around the age of 25 years. C) Sensory systems are myelinated before motor systems in the cerebral cortex. D) Myelination at different ages is not very predictive of behavioral differences.arrow_forward

She also has difficulty producing spoken and written language herself. When she speaks, the rhythm and pattern sound normal - it is fluent - but the speech itself is meaningless. Given this information, it is most likely that Carly is suffering from _____ aphasia. A) productive B) Wernicke's C) expressivearrow_forwardLanguage functions are scattered widely in the left hemisphere. There is also evidence that the right hemisphere contributes to language functioning, especially when it comes to _____, the use of intonation, emphasis, and rhythm to convey meaning in speech.
