Explanation / Answer

6.His sister displayed reactive aggression.Reactive aggression is an aggressive response to a perceived threat or provocation,in this case annpying her constantly. 7.Aggression is not the symptom.Klüver-Bucy syndrome is the result of damage to the temporal lobes of the brain. This may be the result of trauma to the brain itself, or the result of other degenerative brain diseases, tumors, or it can be caused by some brain infections, most commonly herpes simplex encephalitis .It causes amnesia,dietary changes,visual agnosia etc. 8.The mutual inhibition of the VPLa with various brain stem nuclei may result in Alternation between sleep and wakefulness 9.There is good evidence that the internal circadian clock is located in the suprachiasmatic nuclei.In the brain, a small group of hypothalamic nerve cells, the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), functions as a master circadian pacemaker controlling the timing of the sleep-wake cycle and coordinating this with circadian rhythms in other brain areas and other tissues to enhance behavioral adaptation. 10.According to Joseph LeDoux's cognitive theory of emotion, the pathway dependent on interpretation and evaluation of complex emotions such as guilt is called High Road.Studies have shown that there are two pathways through which the amygdala's fear responses can be triggered: a fast "low road" from the thalamus to the amygdala, and a slower "high road" that passes from the thalamus to the neocortex and only then to the amygdala 11.Tara was most likely suffering from. Obsessive compulsive disorder.OCD involves unwanted and disturbing thoughts, images, or urges (obsessions) that intrude into a child/teen's mind and cause a great deal of anxiety or discomfort, which the child/teen then tries to reduce by engaging in repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions).
