Why do we sleep? Regeneration of neurons in the brain

How long is the sleep cycle? 90 minutes

Best stage to wake up in: Stage 1

Which stage do we dream in? REM

hypnagogic sensations (stage 1) sensations of falling

freud says dreams are wish fullfillment

manifest content: content of your dream
latent content: meaning of the content of your dream

dreams are part of our cognitive development

What part of the brain does the researcher severe to help the seizures? what is the function of this part of the brain? The corpus callosum. It helps connect the two hemispheres of the brain.

Explain the opposition that occurs between the brain and the body. The connection between the two hemispheres allows a verbal account of visual recognition. Also the hemispheres control the opposite side of the body.

I would rather live without my left brain because I like to think/act more creatively (right hemisphere) than logically (left hemisphere)

The frontal lobe controls judgement, behavior, and personality. To be human means to feel a variety of emotions and to have control over your choices and decisions. To be empathetic and connect with others around you.

Agonist Molecule: mimics a neurotransmitter, fitting into the receptor sites and exciting the site

# data[].attributes.body
Types of Neurotransmitters
1) Acetylcholine (Ach)
-excitatory
-controls movement, arousal, attention, and memory,
-too much: spasms
-too little: paralysis

2) Dopamine
-inhibitory or excitatory (depends on which neuron its in)
-controls emotions and pleasure (involuntary)
-too much: schizophrenia
-too little: parkinson's

3)Seratonin
-inhibitory
-controls activity levels, sleep, mood, and eating
-too much: euphoria, muscle twitching
-too little: sleeplessness, depression
-SSRI
-Prozac

4) Norepinephrine
-excitatory
-controls arousal wakefulness, learning, and memory,
-too much: arousal and anxiety
-too little: memory impairment, depression?

5) Edorphines
-inhibitory
-inhibits pain message
-too much: no pain
-too little increase in pain

6) GABA (gamma amino-butyric acid)
-inhibits neurons from firing
-increases sleep and relaxation
-too much: shortness or breath
-too little: anxiety, seizures

when a neuron fires it depolarizes a cell, when a neuron is waiting to fire a neuron is polarized
