Ques:Q: What term is used to describe the parts of the brain involved in the reception and interpretation of sensory stimuli collectively? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Sensorium Those parts of the brain involved in the reception and interpretation of sensory stimuli are referred to collectively as the sensorium. The cerebral cortex has several regions that are necessary for sensory perception. From the primary cortical areas of the somatosensory, visual, auditory, and gustatory senses to the association areas that process information in these modalities, the cerebral cortex is the seat of conscious sensory perception. In contrast, sensory information can also be processed by deeper brain regions, which we may vaguely describe as subconsciousfor instance, we are not constantly aware of the proprioceptive information that the cerebellum uses to maintain balance. Several of the subtests can reveal activity associated with these sensory modalities, such as being able to hear a question or see a picture. Two subtests assess specific functions of these cortical areas. The first is praxis, a practical exercise in which the patient performs a task completely on the basis of verbal description without any demonstration from the examiner. For example, the patient can be told to take their left hand and place it palm down on their left thigh, then flip it over so the palm is facing up, and then repeat this four times. The examiner describes the activity without any movements on their part to suggest how the movements are to be performed. The patient needs to understand the instructions, transform them into movements, and use sensory feedback, both visual and proprioceptive, to perform the movements correctly. Choices: - glial cells - neurons - medulla oblongata - sensorium A:

Ans:sensorium

Ques:Q: Making a specific prediction based on a general principle is known as what type of reasoning? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: In deductive reasoning, I make a specific prediction based on a general principle. One general principle is that acids turn blue litmus paper red. If I have a bottle of liquid labeled "acid," I expect the litmus paper to turn red when I immerse it in the liquid. Choices: - common sense reasoning - logical reasoning - validating reasoning - deductive reasoning A:

Ans:deductive reasoning

Ques:Q: The van allen radiation belts are two regions in which energetic charged particles are trapped in earth's what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Figure 22.24 The Van Allen radiation belts are two regions in which energetic charged particles are trapped in the Earth's magnetic field. One belt lies about 300 km above the Earth's surface, the other about 16,000 km. Charged particles in these belts migrate along magnetic field lines and are partially reflected away from the poles by the stronger fields there. The charged particles that enter the atmosphere are replenished by the Sun and sources in deep outer space. Choices: - gravitational field - cloud cover - ionosphere - magnetic field A:

Ans:magnetic field

Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Accuracy is how close a measurement is to the true value. For example, 66 mL is a fairly accurate measurement of the liquid in Figure above . Choices: - frequency - validity - correctness - accuracy A:

Ans:
