Biopsychology

2. These are mainly found in the brain and they pass messages
3. This area of the brain is responsible for language comprehension
7. A scan which measures electrical activity in the brain and patients wear a cap and are connected to electrodes
9. This neuron connects sensory and motor neurons together
12. This theory argues that brain functions work as a whole
15. Sperry's participants had this type of brain
19. These are fatty tissues which protect the axon and keep it insulated
20. The idea that each part of the brain has its own function
21. The idea that each hemisphere has its own functions
22. A scan consisting of measuring changes in blood oxygen levels
23. This part of the nervous system consists of the brain & spinal cord
24. The idea that the brain can re-wire itself after trauma and re-gain functions
25. The idea that the brain is able to change
27. A sophisticated version of EEG and produces a statistical average

1. This cortex is the outer layer of the brain
2. This system is responsible for communication within the body
4. These are responsible for collecting electrical transmissions from neighbouring neurons
5. This is required in order to fully recover after trauma and consists of exercises to strengthen different functions
6. The master hormone gland
8. This area of the brain is responsible for processing sensory information from the skin
10. This joins the two hemispheres of the brain together
11. This contains the cell information/DNA in a neuron
13. This is the net total of action potentials, which ultimately determines whether or not a neuron will fire
14. During fight vs flight pupils become...
16. This area of the brain is responsible for speech production
17. This is released and activated during fight vs flight
18. This system is responsible for the secretion of hormones, metabolism and growth
26. Studied rats and found evidence against localisation
