Question

For this question, consider the image below. It was taken from a behavioral neuroscience article looking at the role that a brain region (the retrosplenial cortex) plays in a specific behavior (spatial navigation) in rats. Pre-surgery maze performance was measured before surgery. Surgery was conducted to implant cannulae into the targeted brain regions. Post-surgery maze performances was measured after surgery. Then, the PBS rats were injected with non- acting saline, and the Muscimol 0.2 were injected with active muscimol. These are their results. Experiment 3: Retrosplenial Inactivation 'standard T-maze' Image taken Choose the statement that is true. Only the Muscimol 0.2 rats were tested. It does not look like the targeted brain region (retrosplenial cortex) is important for this behavior (spatial navigation) Only the Muscimol 0.2 rats underwent procedures to implant cannulas. The scientists injected muscimol to create temporary lesions in the targeted brain area.

Explanation / Answer

1 ans) b)i does not look like the targeted brain is important for this behaviour

beacuse remaing all options are false they are not by the graph and given data we can easily say

2 ans) d) this was an experiment using intervation

clearly we can say by observing graph and passage
