W1: What is learning? correct answers Acquisition of knowledge/skills through experience W1: What is associative learning? correct answers Learning process where a new response becomes associated with a particular stimulus (The creation of associations between two stimuli / a behaviour + consequence) W1: What is non-associative learning? correct answers Learning that changes in frequency/amplitude of behaviour/response after repeated exposures to a single stimulus W1: What are types of ...

Abducens (VI) - motor origin: pons term: lateral rectus -rotates eye laterally Accommodation - looking at an object up close -eyes converge ex) crossing -pupils constrict -lens changes: more curved (up close) Adaption of sensory receptors - most sensory receptors adapt, become less sensitive during prolonged time; Nociceptors and most proprioreceptors do not adapt Adrenergic neurons - secrete NE sympathetic postganglionic fibers 1. alpha adrenergenic: constrict blood vessels and dila...

experts have more narrow defintion that is driven by motivation. Lay people have more broad defintion that is driven by intrapersonal aspects but their definitions change over the course of development. they both defined problem solving, verbal ability and social competence as important. - Answer What is the difference between the lay public and expert definitions of intelligence? They reflect personal definitions and assumptions about IQ. They emphasis interpersonal skills + pe...

Anabolism - Uses energy to construct components of cells. Catabolism - Breaks down organic matter, for example, to harvest energy. Nutrient Density - A measure of the nutrient a food provides compared to its energy content. Trace Minerals - Needed only in tiny amounts. These minerals participate in most chemical reactions in the body. These include iron, zinc, iodine, copper, manganese. Protein Complementation - The act of consuming a variety of plant products to provide all the necessary...

Transduction correct answers process of converting sensory information into neural activity that the brain can interpret What is Doctrine of specific nerve energies? correct answers idea that separate brain areas are specialized for different sensory inputs Orienting responses correct answers occur when surprising and new events capture our attention sensory adaption correct answers devoting less attention to very familiar stimuli (boredom) Absolutely threshold correct answers minimu...

Benefits of Adaption in touch sensations - ️️1) Helps us to ignore constant, innocuous stimuli, reducing distraction 2) Helps to avoid saturation of neuronal firing rates, allowing us to detect changes in stimulus intensity over a larger ranger of intensities. Merkel Cells and Mechanotransduction - ️️When skin is presed: 1) Mechanically-gated ion channels in the A beta membrane open, letting in ions (Na) 2) This causes the first ("dynamic phase") action potential 3) Mechanically...
