Photo receptors
Give this one a try later!
located at the back of the retina
contain photopigments that signal the brain when exposed to light
Axon
Give this one a try later!
carries information from the cell body to the terminal buttons
Rene Descartes
,Give this one a try later!
Agreed with socrates & plato
Dualist- mind & body are seperate
Proposed first model of communication between mind & body
"I think there for I am"
Hippocampus
Give this one a try later!
new memory formation
-not where memory is stored
Experimentation
Give this one a try later!
rules out alternative explanations by controlling for those explanations
-manipulate only a single factor
-measure the results change in behavior
The goal of science is
Give this one a try later!
to describe, predict, and explain
, Smell
Give this one a try later!
humans have approx 5-10 million olfactory cells
particles of the thing you smell go into your nose
Absolute threshold
Give this one a try later!
the smallest amount of stimulus energy necessary for an observer to
reliably detect a stimulus
Terminal buttons
Give this one a try later!
pass info to the next neuron in the sequence
