Memory is a broad term used to refer to a number of different brain functions. The common feature of these functions is the creation of part experiences by the synchronized firings of neurons that were involved in experiences. What is memory? A memory may be the ability to read a poem or recognize a face on demand, a vague vision of some long past event, the skill required to ride a bike or the knowledge that your car keys are…
Emotions and Intentions; Emotions, feelings, Hans Selye, flight, fright, freeze and and recently “appease,” the human brain systems and all it’s beauty, and the disrespect shown toward the human in war, in economics, in political realms, that continue to not understand the need of the individual hybrid, is an emotional state causing one to wonder, on one side of the coin, and horror on the other side of the coin, and every emotion in betwixt. Example; Hamas, Israel, Palestine, Iran,…
Good Morning from Carolyn d Hogarth’s from my Paid for site on Hostgator. Word Press is the word editor, I am using and I pay for this site to be able to write about the beauty of the Brain. Thank you. Have a great laugh with me, and “mimicking neurons.” Remember who is writing this, a Ouelette/Cardinal person part of the French/ Acadian group thrown out of Canada for marrying for love, so I am a romantic about life. I…
The Unconscious action and reaction pathways, of our attention, body behaviour and long term unconscious memories; Lets look at action plans of sending signals and conscious and unconscious starts, and movement memory, for limb control. The “reticulospinal tract” helps control balance and neutralizes the effects of gravity. Unconscious Action; The brain registers events via the sense organs almost immediately, but it takes up to half a second to become conscious of them in order to generate effective responses in a…
Movements of Acton are planned either consciously or unconsciously, or intuitively, and these types of planning can be complex actions, or will look very much like all planned movement is initiated in a different area from the unconscious movements, and the more skilled we are, at making particular movements, the less likely a requirement of consciousness. What is the difference between conscious and unconscious movements?” Movements; Many of our actions are conscious like thinking about parking, or about picking up…
The brain maintains the stable internal environment as homeostatic and regulation by action signals and messaging. Neural control canters in the brain influence body glands to produce and release hormones needed to maintain a synchronized balance. So we know that the whole system of our body’s state of stability, in the internal state of homeostasis, is extremely important for the balanced system in the brain to work with internal environments, and external environments that we exist with. Through the actions…
The body’s functions are carefully controlled in order to maintain a stable “Internal Environment.” The hypothalamus and brainstem work with chemicals such as estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, Oxytocin, epinephrine, adrenaline, cortisone and others, mostly without awareness, but occasionally your awareness of too much estrogen causes allergic reactions to some type of foods, and you find yourself starting research. High levels of estrogen can mean there are products that can cause very important life reactions that I might not be aware of….
Pain as you know travels to several areas of the brain, of the cortex, where the neurons are activated for messaging the state of the body, and where it is stimulated and how the brain has warnings, and the insular cortex, the deep folds that divide the Temporal and frontal lobes operating. The other site associated with the pain in the cortex is the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) which lies in the groove between the hemisphere. The (ACC) is concerned…
First let me say this to you before I get started…The reason we have memory, organize, initiate movement, talk, and create anything in life is because we all have a human brain. It is 3 evolved connected parts of one organ, but is a remarkable electromagneticvibrational organ that exists because we evolved into “us.” You have the ability to be decent, law abiding individuals or create havoc in lives. The human brain is capable of both. Proprioception from Proprio the…
Sound vibrations are turned into electrical impulses in the Cochlea and from there they travel through to the auditory cortex and it’s associated areas, via the medula and the Thalamus. Hearing like seeing is a construct of the brain evolution.”Reality” We perceive sound as vibrations entering the ears in the inner ear receptor cells in the Cochlea, transforming those vibrations into electrical signals or synapses, which go along the Cochlear nerve to the medula in the brain stem and then…
