Please answer one of the following questions
1. Ungerleider and Mishkin’s experiments were developed after evidence indicated that specific cognitive problems are associated with damage to specific regions of the brain. Why was that evidence insufficient to show that that region controls that cognitive function? How were Ungerleider and Mishkin’s experiments designed to avoid this limitation?
2. Ungerleider and Mishkin designed different sets of experiments to study the different routes that visual information takes through the brain depending on the kind of information being processed. Describe one of the sets of experiments, including explaining how the experiment shows what path the information takes.
3. What is the justification for studying the algorithms of cognition? What are two aspects of cognition that cannot easily be captured without theorizing about the brain?
4. What are the four main features of artificial neural networks? What does studying them contribute to our understanding of cognitive processing?
5. Discuss in detail one feature of H.M.’s condition and explain how studying that feature has informed our broader understanding of the brain.
