The ability to view the brain in this way has revolutionized the study of the brain. Choose the incorrect statement. Motor projections project from layer 5 of cortex to the brain stem and cerebellum. Layers 2 and 4 consist of granular neurons while layers 3 and 5 contain pyramidal neurons. Layers 1 and 6 are polymorphic layers.
Neurons can show many different types of plastic responses after injury.
The cytoskeleton is the essential backbone of all neurons and dendrites. Dr. Azmitia often says our brains react more like plants than computers. What principle is he trying to teach us and how should it affect how we live our lives. Draw and label all of the major structures of a typical neuron. Describe a function associated with each one of these areas.
