Question 1

what are the 4 lobes

Answer 1

frontal
parateal
temporal
occipital

Question 2

what are the 4 cortex

Answer 2

motor
somatosensory
visual
auditory

Question 3

what is the 2 language centre

Answer 3

broca
werinke

Question 4

what is the motor cortex

Answer 4

controls the motor movements
controls the body skeletal muscles to produce movement

Question 5

what is the somatosensory cortex

Answer 5

relieved and process sense in the body
all sense but visual and auditory

Question 6

what is the auditory cortex

Answer 6

process and interprets sound
it enters the ear then converted into electrical signals of the cochlea which converts it to sound impulses

Question 7

what is the visual cortex

Answer 7

it spans both hemispheres
the right hemisphere receive input from the left hand side whilst the left hemisphere receives input from the right hand side of the visual field

Question 8

what is broca area

Answer 8

production of speech

Question 9

what happens if broca’s area is damaged

Answer 9

can understand and process in the mind but can’t communicate through compressive speech

Question 10

what is wernickes area

Answer 10

understanding language and speech

Question 11

what happens when werinckes area is damaged

Answer 11

trouble following conversations
can speak but it won’t make sense

Question 12

how does the visual process begin

Answer 12

when light enters and strikes the photoreceptors
then nerve impulses from the retina are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve
majority of the nerve impulses are csent to the thalamus which acts as a relay station and sends the info to the visual cortex

Question 13

what is localisation

Answer 13

the principle that specific function have specific locations within the brain

Question 14

what is lateralisation

Answer 14

idea that the brain is divided into 2 symmetrical halves that are functionally different and each hemisphere has functionall specialities

Question 15

what does the left hemisphere control

Answer 15

the right hand side of the boyd

Question 16

what does the right hemsphere control

Answer 16

left hand sid elf the body

Question 17

what does the left hemisphere dominant

Answer 17

thinking
aka lang
logic
writing

Question 18

what does the right hemisphere dominate

Answer 18

creativity
aka vision
music
art

Question 19

what allows for interhemisoheriec communication

Answer 19

the 2 hemispheres being connected by never fibres called the corpus callosum

Question 20

what is hemsipheric laterisltion

Answer 20

dominance of one hemisphere of the brain for a specific psychological and physicoolagal function

Question 21

what’s neurolasticity

Answer 21

the ability for the brain to chnage and adapt at a result of experience learning

Question 22

what is internal rewriting

Answer 22

the brain evolving and reaching new demand due to neuroplsdticity

Question 23

what is synaptic bridging

Answer 23

strengthen frequent pathways

Question 24

what is synaptic pruning

Answer 24

deltelting unfrequently used pathways

Question 25

what is functional recovery

Answer 25

a form of neuroplsticity brain transferring or redistributing functions that are usually performed by a damaged area to another area

Question 26

what areas can sometimes adapt to compensate for damaged areas

Answer 26

unaffected areas

Question 27

what are the 2 ways the brains recovers

Answer 27

neural regeneration and reorganisation

Question 28

how does the brain rewires and reorganise itself

Answer 28

creating new synaptic connections initial ability after truisms is quick and slows down after spontaneous recovery

Question 29

what is the process supported by

Answer 29

axon sprouting neural unmasking reformation of blood vessels recruitment of homoglyrus areasjk
