ANSWERS (VERIFIED ANSWERS) ALREADY GRADED A+BRAND
NEW!! 2026-2027
Neuroscience - CORRECT ANSWER -Study of the brain and nervous system
Cognition - CORRECT ANSWER -How we take in, procss, remember, and use information
Neurons - CORRECT ANSWER -Tiny cells that work together in our brain like a communication
network
Myelination - CORRECT ANSWER -Process that ages pathways stronger
Pruning - CORRECT ANSWER -Gets rid of pathways that are not needed
Brain stem - CORRECT ANSWER -Controls basic functions like breathing, heart rate, and
digesting food. It connects to the spinal cord
Limbic System - CORRECT ANSWER -Helps process emotions, form memories,and make
decisions based on past experiences
Cerebellum - CORRECT ANSWER -Responsible for balance, coordination, and motor control
Cerebrum - CORRECT ANSWER -Largest part of the brain that is responsible for higher cognitive
functions like thinking, reasoning, and problem solving
Prefrontal cortex - CORRECT ANSWER -Plays a crucial role in decision-making, impulse control,
and emotional regulation
, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) - CORRECT ANSWER -Checks brains activity :
Measures changes in blood flow and oxygen levels
Encoding - CORRECT ANSWER -Initial processing of info (sensory input is transformed into a
form that the brain can store and use)
Storage - CORRECT ANSWER -Retaining the encoded info over time
Retrieval - CORRECT ANSWER -Process of getting stored information when needed
Feedback - CORRECT ANSWER -Receiving information (refines our learning strategies by
providing info about our performance)
Metacognition - CORRECT ANSWER -Awareness of one's thinking processes. Enabling learners to
monitor their learning effectively
desirable difficulty - CORRECT ANSWER -Introducing challenges during learning that aren't too
easy or too hard but just right for learning
Retrieval practice (learning strategy) - CORRECT ANSWER -Recalling info from memory (tests)
Spacing (learning strategy) - CORRECT ANSWER -Spacing out study sessions over time
Interleaving (learning strategy) - CORRECT ANSWER -Mixing different types of problems/topics
during study sessions (+,-,x)
Feedback-Driven Metacognition - CORRECT ANSWER -Using feedback from assessments to
reflect on one's own learning strategies
