serotonine

a monoamine involved in regulating mood, sleep, aggression, and appetite
(regulating of sleep, appetite, mood)
indirect antagonist
,Give this one a try later!
reduces the influence of a neurotransmitter without physically blocking the
receptor
stem cells
Give this one a try later!
a unique type of cell that does not have a predestined function
Midbrain
Give this one a try later!
resides just above the hindbrain, primarily functions as a relay station
between sensory and motor areas
chromosomes
Give this one a try later!
structures in the cellular nucleus that are lined with all the genes an
individual inherits
Neuroplasticity
,Give this one a try later!
the capacity of the brain to change and rewire itself based on individual
experience
direct agonist
Give this one a try later!
physically binds to that neurotransmitter's receptors at the postsynaptic
cells
behavioural genetics
Give this one a try later!
the study of how genes and the environment influence behaviour
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Give this one a try later!
a structural imaging technique in which clear images of the brain are
created based on how different neural regions absorb and release energy
while in a magnetic field
, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
Give this one a try later!
measures brain activity by detecting the influx of oxygen-rich blood into
neural areas that were just active
Dr. Gillis studies how stress impacts electrical activity in the brain during sleep. Which
technique will Dr. Gillis MOST likely be using to collect her data?
