How Long Term Alcohol Abuse Affects the Brain One in every thirteen adults suffer from alcoholism today in the United States alone (Connery 1). This is just one of many devastating truths about alcoholism. Available information on alcohol is abundant and includes not only statistics‚ but the differences between an alcoholic’s brain and a healthy adult’s brain‚ the negative affects alcohol has on the brain‚ and how to prevent those effects. Many people do not understand what‚ exactly‚ alcohol

Cognitive Functioning in Older Adults PSY317: Cognitive Functioning in the Elderly Ragota Berger June 25th‚ 2012 Cognitive Functioning In Older Adults Not only is the country’s population growing‚ it is aging as well. Older adults are the fastest growing population on the charts right now. There is no point and time when a person overnight just becomes “old.” Obviously everyone knows we simply just age; it comes with getting older. This thing called “aging” happens to everyone at a different

MICTURITION REFLEX Physiologically‚ micturition involves coordination between the central‚ autonomic‚ and somatic nervous systems. Central nervous system: Prefrontal cortex‚ precentral gyrus‚ postcentral gyrus‚ hypothalamus‚ amydaloid nucleus‚ periaqueductal gray‚ pontine micturition center Autonomic nervous system: Sympathetic: Lateral horn cells of T10-L2 segments of spinal cord (Preganglionic motor fibres)→Synapse with superior hypogastric plexus→ Hypogastric nerve (Postganglionic motor

Introduction The cingulate gyrus is a stretch of cortex directly dorsal to the corpus callosum and can be split into multiple areas: the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)‚ middle cingulate cortex‚ and posterior cingulate cortex (PCC). Each of these subsections has different structural characteristics and neuronal projections that characterize their individual cortical areas and functions (Stevens et al.‚ 2011). The ACC has been functionally tied to several behaviors‚ including decision-making‚ socially
