Brain Game

Severing the corpus callosum can leads to this, which can help stop epilepsy.

Used to treat patients experiencing pain from phantom limb.

This area of the brain controls memory storage, emotion, hearing.

Area of the brain contains the sensory cortex and receives sensory input for touch and movement

Part of the limbic system, controls emotions, especially agression and fear

What would occur if one didn't have enough ACH (muscle movement control) in their system.

The part of the neuron that receives incoming message.

This region of the brain controls speech and muscle movements in order to speak.

Neurotransmitter responsible for pleasure(addiction, motivation, movement).

Part of the limbic system linked to explicit memory

Smaller lump on brain stem that controls heartbeat and breathing

This region of the brain deals with comprehension and word recognition of spoken language.

If a split brain patient had the word "FACE" projected to his left eye, how would he respond?

Large bump on brain stem that connects different brain regions and controls facial expressions

Impaired use of language caused by damage to language areas.

Lil’ Greggy wakes up to the sound of a killer. What's the sympathetic nervous system response?

Axon fibers connecting the two hemispheres of the brain.

"little brain"; coordinates voluntary mvement and balance formulates implicit memory

This area of the brain processes visual data and routes it to other parts of the brain.

Area of the brain that contains the motor cortex and deal in planning/ judgement

Secretes hormones, which can affect other glands (master gland).

Now if lil' Greggy was using his "right brain", what would describe him?

Test which uses radioactive glucose to track brain function.

Part of the limbic system that controls eating, drinking, sex, and temperature.

If Greggy looked at parts of a puzzle, rather than a whole, what side of the brain is he using?

Uses magnetic and radio waves for density and location.

Impulse that does not vary in strength, either it fires or it doesn't.

What would occur if one had too much endorphin (pain and pleasure control) in their system.

The part of the neuron which is extended to send the message down the neuron.

Time in which a neuron cannot fire.

Neurotransmitter that regulates mood, hunger, thirst, sleep, and arousal.

If lil’ Greggy’s lil' body wasn't producing enough dopamine in his system, what would he need?

The fatty part of the neuron that insulates the axon and speeds along the message.
