anatomical landmark that
separates the ____ lobe
from the ____ lobe.
11. Staining Technique Allowed scientists to see neurons (Golgi)
12. Neuron Doctrine All neurons are individual pieces of the brain but that are all connect-
ed and work together. (Ramon y Cajal)
13. Damage to Brocas area "patient tan" could only say the word tan, there were problems with
(BA 44 and 45) word production but no damage to comprehension.
14. Damage to Wernickes Patient could produce fluent language but it was "word salad" which
area (BA 22) made the level of comprehension questionable
15. Brodmann Areas the cytoarchitectural or cellular structure of neurons, dendrites, ax-
ons, etc.
