Attitude and Cognitive dissonance

Which lobe of the cerebral cortex is primarily responsible for controlling voluntary movement and abstract thinking?

• Frontal Lobe

• Temporal Lobe

• Parietal Lobe

• Occipital Lobe

What is the main function of the occipital lobe?

• Receive and process visual information

• Integrate sensory information relating to touch

• Control voluntary movement

• Receive and process auditory information

Which part of the neuron is responsible for transferring information over distance?

• Axon

• Dendrites

• Cell Body

• Myelin Sheath

Which structure of the neuron protects the axon and assists with fast transmission of electrical impulses?

• Myelin Sheath

• Dendrites

• Cell Body

• Synaptic Knobs

A student is experiencing difficulty processing auditory information. Which lobe of the cerebral cortex is most likely affected?

• Temporal Lobe

• Frontal Lobe

• Parietal Lobe

• Occipital Lobe

Explain how the parietal lobe contributes to muscle movement and spatial awareness.

• It integrates sensory information relating to touch, temperature, position in space, and muscle movement.

• It controls voluntary movement and personality.

• It processes visual information.

• It receives auditory information.

A person is unable to perceive colors and shapes correctly. Which lobe of the brain is most likely damaged? Justify your answer using evidence from the functions of the lobes.

• Occipital Lobe, because it processes visual information such as color and shape.

• Frontal Lobe, because it controls voluntary movement.

• Parietal Lobe, because it integrates sensory information.

• Temporal Lobe, because it processes auditory information.

Which part of the nervous system is considered the body's master control unit?

• Peripheral NS

• Central NS

• Autonomic NS

• Somatic NS

What is the main function of the spinal cord?

• Controls voluntary movements

• Connects the brain to the spinal cord

• A column of nerves between the brain and peripheral nervous system

• Regulates heart rate and digestion

What does the Autonomic Nervous System (NS) regulate?

• Voluntary muscle movements

• Involuntary bodily processes like heart rate and digestion

• Sensory information from organs

• Memory and learning
