On the final

Neural Rhythms

Vision

Receptive fields

On center/off surround

Off center/on surround

LOOK AT CHART - in lecture Vision 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How light travels from the outisde to form an image on V1

Diagram of left/right eye, optic nervs, optim chiasm, primary visual areas in occpial lobes of cerebral - IMPORTANT TO KNOW

Other sensory systems

Auditory system

Translated into liqueid, then get translated into ion channels then neuron

Similarities and differences

Between the 5 senses

Look at lectures slide - theres a chart on senses

Motor Systems

Organization of sensory cortices

Topically organized; the homocoulus diagram of the somatasensory and motor cortex. In the parietal lobe.

Movement

Reflex

Voluntary

Rhythmic

The cat with the spinal cord severed; rhythmic movement treadmill experiment

Learning and memory

Slides

Memory terminology, information flow hierarchy

Understand different types of memory

Where learning and memory is located

Chart on multiple memory systems

How do we know these things, in relation to patients HM and EP?

The Suprachiasmatic nucleus

Differences between circadian system and optic system

Freerunning vs. entrained; Abnormal vs. normal circadian rhythms

Development

How axons reach their targets.

Philiapodia - arms that reach out

Hormones

The First endocrine experiment

Berthold experiment; regardless of where the testis are, to require intervation; to see if compound is unique to different males

Brain Rewards System

Nucleus Accumbens

Oldsm and milner did experiments on rats

Predictable vs. unpredictable rewards (not important)

Consciousness

Insula

We dont understand fully; just one hypothesis. Bud Craig

Brain and behavior

Gardner snakes - specialized reproductive ssytem, use special cues

Hormone profiles reflect social and environmental conditions and respond to different cues

Transitive inference
