A woman developed a tumor that diminished her ability to form new-long term memories. Though memory involves numerous parts of the brain, the part most likely affected by the tumor is the
Amygdala
Hippocampus
One key difference between sensory memory and short term memory is
Short term memory can be described, while sensory memories cannot.
Inability to retrieve information from long-term memory
The simplest way to maintain information in short-term memory is to repeat the information in a process called
Retrieval
Rehearsal
Memory researchers define forgetting as the
inability to retrieve information from long-term memory
inability to reverse information from long-term memory

True
False
It is a peptide neurochemical produced in the lateral hypothalamus that stimulates eating
Orexin
Amygdala
Overdrinking under certain conditions results in
Fever
Hyponatremia
It is the primary brain area regulating “appetite” with response to emotions.

Amygdala
It produces hormones that regulate the body’s metabolic rate controlling heart, muscle, and digestive function, brain development and bone maintenance.
Thyroids
Amygdala
It is a theory of sleep that suggests that the primary function of sleep is to reduce an individual’s energy demand and expenditure during part of the day or night, especially at times when it is at least efficient to search for food.
Energy- Conservation Theory
Energy- Conversation Theory

Feelings
Two brain areas involved in the neutral network of aggressive behavior are
Amygdala and Hypothalamus
