ROLE OF NEUROTRANSMITTERS IN LEARNING AND MEMORY – Martinez and Kesner (1991) Aim: determining the role of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine on memory Method: * Rats were trained to go through a maze and get to the end‚ where they received food * Researcher injected one group of rats with scopolamine (blocks acetylcholine receptor sites thus decreasing available acetylcholine) * Injected second group of rats with physostigmine (blocks the production of cholinesterase – cholinesterase

Yvan Mamboukuate 10/09/2013 BIO 101 Lab Report Biological Molecules Introduction: In this experiment‚ simple chemical tests will be performed to identify the presence of various types of biological molecules. These tests take advantage of the fact that different types of molecules have different functional groups and‚ therefor‚ different chemical properties. Thus‚ they will react to test reagents (also called indicators) differently. Materials: Biuret‚ Sudan III‚ Iodine‚ Benedict‚ water

When it comes to Alan Goodman’s quote “to understand why the idea of race is a biological myth requires a major paradigm shift”‚ I do highly agree because we have been taught to classify and relate to each other through race. By stating it is a biological myth is going to cause a huge controversy for example in the video ‘Race: The Power of an Illusion (2003) – Ep1‚ “The Difference Between Us” shows proof that though we can physically and culturally connect through race we are genetically still very

Biological Psychologists apply the principles of biology to the study of mental processes and behaviour. They believe that the mind and the brain are the same and that thought processes and behaviour cannot occur without the operation of the central nervous system (CNS). This psychological theory says that an imbalance of chemicals in the brain can cause mental disorders such as bipolar disorder. Thought process and human behaviour have a biological basis and are influenced by both our genetic inheritance

Chemical and Biological Weapons are Your FriendsAs we go on our daily lives‚ terrorists are buying and developing dangerous and hazardous biological and chemical weapons to obliterate us. They do not care who they harm; their mission is to cause terror‚ to spread chaos‚ to engulf the world in anarchy. They want to know that they are making people terminally ill and sick. They will be enjoying a job well done while your skin is covered with excruciating painful blisters‚ or while you tell your loved

For example‚ the biological model and the psychodynamic model take very different approaches on understanding thoughts and emotions. All models are unique and similar to each other‚ but the biological model and psychodynamic model seem to be the most extreme when compared to each other. The biological model takes on more of a medical perspective‚ which is somewhat self-explanatory in its title. It takes its roots in human biological or genetic makeup. The main focus of the biological approach is the

Early biological theories were limited to the technologies of the time. Increased industrialization‚ and heavy immigration and urban growth were effects of the ending of the cival war. These were the factors that stirred high crime rates up until World War II. Around this time phrenology came into practice. Phrenology is the practice of measuring the skull and other facial features to determine a persons character. The problem with this type of theory was we were letting our perception of human

Major Biological molecules There are many Biological molecules but this discussion will be about the 4 Major biological molecules and how they are used in a living system. This discussion will also include major subtypes of molecules. The four Major biological molecules are Carbohydrates‚ Lipids‚ Proteins‚ nucleic acids. Carb is an abbreviation for carbohydrates. The body breaks down carbohydrates into simple sugars. Carbohydrates are easily used for energy by the body. The nervous system and brain
