Look at the major divisions of the brain and the developing
neural tube. Do you see a pattern in the position of each tube and
the functions of the major brain divisions?
Neural tube defects are abnormalities that occur in the brain
or spinal cord of a developing embryo and are present at birth.
Each year, approximately 1500 babies are born with spina bifida.
(National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, 2013).
Research neural tube defects and answer the following
questions:Where is neural tube closure initiated and how does it
proceed?What week in gestation is the process completed?What are the different types of neural tube defects and how
can most be prevented?What...
Neural tube defects are abnormalities that occur in the brain or spinal cord of a developing embryo and are present at birth. Each year, approximately 1500 babies are born with spina bifida. (National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, 2013). Research neural tube defects and answer the following questions:
Where is neural tube closure initiated and how does it proceed?
What week in gestation is the process completed?

Describe in detail the development of the neural tube, early
brain and spinal cord development in vertebrates complete with
relevant signaling systems.
What are neural networks, and how do neural networks
relate to localized and global brain functioning? What does our
knowledge of neural networks tell us about how the brain processes
information? How do PET scans and fMRI allow us to see the flow of
information throughout networks?
what do you look at to see if something is practically
significant? on excel, I ran a PH stat regression. what do I look
at for practical significance?
Split brain OR blindsight. Describe the phenomenon that you
chose together with its neural basis and behavioral aspects. What
is the significance of the phenomenon for consciousness
research?
To see internal controls in action, look around you. When you go
to the store, see what types of internal controls you can identify.
At your place of work see if you can identify internal controls
that might be in place. After checking out some different places,
come up with two internal controls you have observed. It can be at
your place of business or when you are a customer (and they don't
have to be from the same place)....
Given what you know about brain plasticity and neural
representation of the body i.e. cortical homunculus, how would you
answer the question: “Is there really a continuous self that is the
subject of my experiences or is the Self an illusion?” Think of the
Rubber Hand Illusion and Body Swap Illusion.
