1. Why are a broad perspective and an interdisciplinary approach required for
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


understanding the brain? Choose the correct option. xr xr xr xr xr xr


A) Understanding the brain is a focused area in natural science with the brain serving xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


as the common point of focus. xr xr xr xr xr


B) Understanding the brain requires knowledge about many things, from the structure xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


of the water molecule to the electrical and chemical properties of the brain.
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


C) Understanding the brain requires the study of the different species of the brain. xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


D) Understanding the brain requires the analysis of one approach at a time to yield a n xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


ew synthesis. xr




2. Galen's study of sheep brains was the basis for a theory of brain function that prevailed
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


for almost 1500 years. Which of the following represents this view? Choose the correct
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


option.
A) The heart as the center of intellect and the brain as the cooling system
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


B) Localization of brain function in the cerebrum and cerebellum xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


C) Mind–brain duality xr


D) Parceling the cerebrum into lobes xr xr xr xr




3. What is ―mind–brain problem‖? Choose the correct option.
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


A) Individually, human mental capacities exist in the mind that is outside the brain. xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


B) The mind is the same as the brain. xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


C) Both animals and people possess intellect and a God-given soul.
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


D) The pineal gland is a spiritual entity. xr xr xr xr xr xr




4. What notion was displaced by the concept of nerves being described as wires? Choose
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


the correct option.
xr xr xr


A) Nerves are channels that communicate with the brain by the movement of fluids.
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


B) Muscles can be twitched when nerves are stimulated electrically and the brain itself
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


may generate electricity. xr xr


C) Signals to the muscles causing movement use the same wires as those that register s
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


ensations from the skin. xr xr xr


D) Nerves conduct electrical signals to and from the brain. xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr




5. The combined work of Bell and Magendie revealed a fundamental fact about the spinal
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr x


nerves. Choose the correct option.
r xr xr xr xr


A) Spinal nerves are myelinated. xr xr xr


B) Spinal nerves are bundles of sensory and motor nerves, and in each sensory and m
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


otor nerve fiber, transmission is strictly one-way.
xr xr xr xr xr xr


C) Spinal nerves are not hollow tubes carrying fluid. xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


D) Both humans and animals have spinal nerves. xr xr xr xr xr xr

, 6. For what purpose did Franz Joseph Gall study the dimensions of the human head?
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


Choose the correct option.
xr xr xr


A) To understand the propensity for certain personality traits
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


B) To demonstrate equal participation of all regions of the brain in all cerebral f
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


unctions
C) To show that nerves conduct electrical signals to and from the brain
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


D) To show that unique human mental capabilities exist outside the brain
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr




7. On what basis did Broca defend functional localization of the brain? Choose the correct
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


option.
xr


A) By establishing a relationship between the production of speech and the right front
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


al lobe xr


B) By establishing a relationship between the production of speech and the occipital l

obe
C) By establishing a relationship between the production of speech and the left frontal
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


lobe xr


D) By establishing a relationship between the production of speech and the cerebellum
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr




8. To whom can we attribute the theory that behavior is among the heritable traits that can
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr x


develop? Choose the correct option.
r xr xr xr xr

B) Charles Darwin xr


C) Gustav Fritsch and Edward Hitzig xr xr xr xr

xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


system? Choose the correct option.
xr xr xr xr xr


A) Cerebral palsy is a motor disorder caused by damage to the cerebrum before, durin
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


g, or soon after birth.
xr xr xr xr


B) Epilepsy is a progressive disease that affects nerve conduction, characterized by ep
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


isodes of weakness, lack of coordination, and speech disturbance.
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


C) Stroke involves a loss of feeling and movement caused by traumatic damage to the
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


spinal cord. xr


D) Alzheimer's disease is a severe psychotic illness characterized by delusions, halluci
xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr xr


nations, and bizarre behavior. xr xr xr
