Question:
Question 1 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) All of the following are neurotransmitters EXCEPT acetylcholine melatonin glutamate gamma-aminobutyric acid serotonin Question 2 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) The role of the parasympathetic nervous system is to prepare the body for flight-or-flight response establish homeostasis after the fight-or-flight response prompt the body to use its resources in responding to an emergency prepare the body to cope with stress communicate between the afferent and efferent neurons Question 3 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) One of the contributing factors to depression may be low levels of which of the following neurotransmitters? endorphins acetylcholine GABA serotonin glutamate Question 4 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) The specific part of the nervous system that is responsible for controlling voluntary muscle movements is called the autonomic nervous system sympathetic nervous system peripheral nervous system parasympathetic nervous system somatic nervous system Question 5 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) What is the basic difference between MRI and fMRI imaging techniques? MRI is less invasive. MRI carries less risk to the patient. fMRI provides less detail. fMRI allows for real-time observations of changes in brain activity. Neither shows soft tissue structures of the brain. Question 6 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) The sympathetic nervous system is most likely to become active when Samuel is sleeping Jaxson is playing the piano Isaiah is watching a documentary Simone is listening to music Alexandra is startled during a horror film Question 7 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) Antipsychotic drugs such as Thorazine are often used to treat schizophrenia.
