About this activity

Standard 2: Students investigate the structure, biochemistry and circuitry of the brain and the nervous system to understand their roles in affecting behavior.
P.2.1 Describe the structure and function of the major regions of the brain; specifically the forebrain, hindbrain, midbrain, and the four lobes.
P.2.2 Compare and contrast between the left and right hemispheres of the brain and identify how vision, motor, language, and other functions are regulated by each hemisphere.
P.2.3 Describe the structure and function of the neuron and describe the basic process of neural transmission.
P.2.4 Compare and contrast the methods for studying the brain.
P.2.5 Identify the major divisions and subdivisions of the nervous system and describe how they function.
P.2.6 Analyze the structure and function of the endocrine system and its effect on human behavior.

Contains E

Neuroplasticity can involve functional changes due to brain damage, or structural changes due to _____ .

Contains F

When you hear dogs barking, _____ neurons are stimulating your ears. [same] neurons relay messages from the sense organs "to the brain".

Contains H

The second part of the nervous system is the _____ nervous system. It runs between the "spinal cord & brain" and the "rest of the body".

Contains I

Within the peripheral nervous system, the _____ nervous system controls voluntary activities, like scratching your nose.

Contains L

_____ is the brain and nervous system's ability to change due to experience (learning).

Contains M

When there is not enough of the neurotransmitter _____ , a person may develop Parkinson's disease. However, when there is too much of [same], a person can develop schizophrenia.

Contains N

When you walk or exercise, ____ neurons are helping the brain to coordinate movement. [same] neurons send signals "from" the brain" to the glands and muscles.

Contains O

Where there is not enough of the neurotransmitter _____ (or norepinephrine), this could lead to depression.

Contains P

Contains T

Axons use chemicals called _____ to transmit impulses to other dendrites, sending the impulse across the synaptic gap.

Contains U

Within the peripheral nervous system, the _____ nervous system controls involuntary activities, like digestion & heart rate.

Contains X
