- The reflex arc is the fastest way the body has to move a body part from danger or away from the source of pain. Have you ever noticed your own reflex response? Did you notice that you felt the pain after you yanked your hand away from the source of pain? Which is the sequence of structures involved in a reflex response? a. motor neurons → effectors → brain → sensory neurons → interneurons b. effectors → sensory neurons → brain → motor neurons c. sensory neurons → interneurons → motor neurons → effectors d. sensory neurons → motor neurons → interneurons → effectorsarrow_forwardSubjective changes in body functions that are not apparent to an observer such as headache nausea and anxiety are referred to asarrow_forwardWhat is the most likely mechanism producing tolerance to cocaine and then the dysphoria that is associated with cocaine withdrawal? A. Dynorphin neurons cause presynaptic inhibition to decrease dopamine release into the nucleus accumbens B. Cocaine runs the dopamine transporter backwards to cause tolerance and withdrawal C. cocaine binds to opiate receptors in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) D. Dynorphin neurons stimulate dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and increase dopamine release into the nucleus accumbensarrow_forward
- What do the two main proprioceptors in muscles respond to? Select one: a. The golgi tendon organ and the spindles both respond to both changes in muscle length and muscle tension b. The golgi tendon organ responds to changes in muscle length, the spindles respond to changes in muscle tension c. The golgi tendon organ responds to changes in muscle tension, the spindles respond to changes in muscle length d. The golgi tendon organ responds to changes in muscle tension and the rate of muscle firing, the spindles respond to changes in muscle length and duration of firingarrow_forwardMultiple sclerosis (MS) is a degenerative disorder where the myelin sheath in the brain and spinal cord are destroyed. Symptoms are varied and MS is often difficult to diagnose. Often, one of the first signs of MS is poor or delayed motor function (some patients may experience difficulty retaining their urine, while others may experience difficulty moving their tongue or arms). come up with a hypothesis explaining why symptoms vary from person to person.arrow_forwardYou are removing a hot pan of cookies from the oven, using a pot holder. Suddenly, you feel a surge of heat through the pot holder. Why don’t you react by dropping the baking pan and spilling cookies all over the floor? You are removing a hot pan of cookies from the oven, using a pot holder. Suddenly, you feel a surge of heat through the pot holder. Why don’t you react by dropping the baking pan and spilling cookies all over the floor? pickone of these options please Sensory input is temporarily suspended to the spinal reflex center. Cortical integration centers override the spinal reflex. The limbic system inhibits the fear of being burned. Efferent signals by cord ventral cord neurons are interrupted.arrow_forward
- People with amygdala damage have trouble recognizing expressions of fear. If you wanted to help such people recognize fear, which of the following should you ask them to change? a. The direction they focus their eyes b. The amount of protein in their diet c. Their time of waking and sleeping d. Their ratio of talking to listeningarrow_forwardBasic neuroscience of emotions states which of the following? A. Two different routes to the amygdala for sensory signals B.
