ARTHROPODS The other complex compartmentalized nervous system is found in arthropods (see the diagram). The arthropodan brain consists of three main regions: the protocerebrum‚deutocerebrum‚ and tritocerebrum. The anterior protocerebrum‚ which receives the nerves of the eyes and other organs‚ contains centres‚ or neuropils‚ such as the optic centres and bodies known as corpora pedunculata. The neuropils function as integrative systems for the anterior sense organs‚ especially the eyes‚ and in control

perspectives that should be considered being cognitive and biological. The cognitive perspective suggests that emotion is based more on the factors of the mental processes. The biological perspective suggests that emotion is influenced by biological systems and performances and is based on physiological responses. It has been suggested that there is a possible interaction between cognitive and biological processes that influence emotions. Le Doux’s theory of the biological pathways focuses solely on
