Neurophysiology and Muscle Function: Key Concepts and Definitions, Quizzes of Biology

Cognitive SciencePhysiologyPsychologyAnatomyNeuroscience

Definitions and terms related to neurophysiology and muscle function, including the location of short-term memory, the role of the basal nuclei and limbic system, the function of the hypothalamus and choroid, and the properties of the tympanic membrane and basilar membrane. It also covers the role of enkephalins, the function of the golgi tendon organ, and the process of muscle contraction.

What you will learn

  • What does the hypothalamus monitor?
  • Where is short-term memory stored?
  • What part of the brain stores procedural memories, like bicycle riding?
  • What is the function of the choroid in the eye?
  • What part of the CNS is most associated with emotions?
