Exam 4 Name: Topics in NeurobiologY BIOL4301-6301 Spring 2017 True or False. Provide a short justfication to sentences you consider false (1 point + 1 point per correct justification). There are two types of associative learning: classical conditioning and non-instrumental 2 The pituitary gland (or hypophysis) is controlled by direct connections with the thalamus Hebb proposed that the internal representation of an external stimulus (i.e. object) consists of all the cortical cells that are activated by it 4.The main structures in the "limbic lobe" are the cingulate gyrus, medial temporal cortex, and the hippocampus, according to Broca. 5. Procedural memory can be divided in declarative and non-deciarative types of memory 6. Frontal eye fields (FEFs) are involved in the production of saccadic eye movements and may play a role in the guidance of attention 7. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is a measurement of temperature of the cerebral cortex from the surface of the scalp. 8. Motivation can be thought of as a driving force on behavior. 9. Pulvinar neurons in the hypothalamus have reciprocal connections with most visual cortical areas of the occipital, parietal, and temporal lobes and control appetite. 10. Temporal lobectomy (bilateral lesions in the amygdala) severely decreases both the normal experience and the normal expression of fear and aggression. 11. Predatory aggression involves attacks against individuals of the same species with the purpose of obtaining food. 12 The main EEG rhythms are categorized by their frequency range, and each range is named after a Greek letter

Explanation / Answer

1.False

Two types of associative learning are classical learning such as in pavlovs dog and operant or instrumental conditioning.

2.False

Pituitary gland is controlled by thalamus via neurons

3.True

Hebb proposed that internal representation of an object consists of all the cortical cells that are controlled by external stimuli.

4.False

Cingulate gyrus ,hippocampus, PHD,septal area .

5.False

Procedural memory is a type of non declarative memory. Long term memory is divided into declarative explicit or non declarative memory ( implicit ).

6.True

Fef is responsible for saccadic eye movements for visual perceptions and getting attention.

7. False

ECG measures voltage fluctuations resulting from ionic current within neurons of brain .

8.True
