  1. Who Wants to be a Millionaire???

  2. What Structure of the Brain is responsible for arousal from sleep? B. Reticular Formation A. Hypothalamus C. Thalamus D. Pituitary Gland

  3. Reticular Formation

  4. The impulse that travels down the axon is known as this: c. Threshold a. Terminal Potential d. Action Potential b. Action Stimulus

  5. Action Potential

  6. This is made up of fatty cells and protects the impulse as it travels through the axon: c. Myelin Sheath a. Neural Coating d. Myelin Coat b. Axon Protector

  7. Myelin Sheath

  8. This portion of the cerebral cortex includes the processing of auditory information c. The Occipital Lobes a. The Frontal Lobes d. The Auditory Cortex b. The Temporal Lobes

  9. The Temporal Lobes

  10. .The Brain fences out unwanted chemicals circulating through the blood with this c. Blood Brain Barrier a. Blood Brain Wall d. Neurotransmitter Filter b. Brain Barrier

  11. Blood Brain Barrier

  12. When this neurotransmitter is released into muscles, the muscles contract: a. Dopamine c. Serotonin b. Endorphins d. Acetycholine

  13. AcH (acetycholine)

  14. The skeletal and the autonomic nervous systems are part of this larger nervous system: a. Central Nervous system c. Sympathetic Nervous system b. Peripheral Nervous System d. Carbonara System

  15. Peripheral Nervous System

  16. This is the minimum amount of stimulus, either neural or sensory, a neuron needs to fire. a. The all or none principle c. The Threshold b. The minimum action potential d. The Stimulus Satiation Point

  17. The Threshold!!

  18. Hormones that spark our interest in sex, hunger and aggression are sent out through this system a. Limbic system c. Neural System d. Central Nervous system b. Endocrine System

  19. The Endocrine System

  20. The principle that states a neuron will either fire or it will not a. Threshold Principle c. Activating Principle d. Activating Impulse Requirement b. All or none Response

  21. All or None Response

  22. The time it takes between neural firings is known as this. c. Myelin Period a. Threshold b. Refractory Period d. Period of Justification

  23. Refractory Period

  24. Surgically destroying brain tissue is known as this method of brain manipulation for research a. Brain Imaging c. PET Scanning d. Lobotomies b. Brain Lesioning

  25. Brain Lesioning

  26. This is the most primitive part of our brain and the most common to our mammalian ancestors: a. The cerebellum c. The brainstem b. The cerebrum d. The thalamus

  27. The Brainstem

  28. All of the following are parts of the lower level brain structures EXCEPT: a. The medulla c. The cerebral cortex b. The hypothalamus d. The Amygdala

  29. The Cerebral Cortex

  30. This brain imaging technique shows us the structure not the function c. CAT scan a. A PET Scan b. f MRI d. EEG

  31. CAT Scan

  32. This part of the brain is associated with memories regarding smell and also helps us respond with appropriate emotions regarding fear and aggression c. The amygdala a. The limbic system b. The hippocampus d. The hypothalamus

  33. The Amygdala

  34. This is also called the little police man of the brain, sending sensory input where it needs to go. a. The Thalamus c. The Reticular Formation b. The hypothalamus d. The sensory cortex

  35. The sensory cortex

  36. This “emotional center” is larger in women than in men a. The endocrine system c. The hypothalamus d. The hippocampus b. The limbic system

  37. The Limbic System

  38. This “Little Brain” is involved in coordinating movement and one of the first areas of the brain affected by alcohol. c. The cerebellum a. The cerebrum d. The prefrontal lobe b. The frontal lobe

  39. The Cerebellum

  40. By lesioning this area of the brain you could get a cat to starve itself to death. c. The hypothalamus a. The hippocampus b. The limbic system d. The thalamus

  41. The Hypothalamus

  42. These lobes are associated with judgment and reasoning skills as well as goal oriented behavior a. Parietal Lobes c. Occipital Lobes b. Temporal Lobes d. Frontal Lobes

  43. The Frontal Lobes

  44. This occupies the largest amount of space on our Sensorimotor Cortex a. The ankle c. The hand b. The face d. The toes

  45. The Face

  46. These lobes are concerned with receiving visual input c. The parietal lobes a. Frontal lobes d. The temporal lobes b. The occipital lobes

  47. The Occipital Lobes

  48. This lobe is considered the emotional lobe and houses the sensory cortex. a. The occipital lobes c. The temporal lobes b. The parietal lobes d. The Frontal Lobes

  49. The Parietal Lobes

  50. This structure encodes visual information and recodes it so that it can be processed by Wernicke’s Area for comprehension: a. Broca’s Area c. Occipital Region b. Angular Gyrus d. Cingulate Gyrate
