Sleep
We sleep to rest our neurons for repair, allow the pituitary to release growth hormone, and boost our memory and creativity.

The sleep cycle is 90 mins. It goes 1,2,3,4,3,2,1,REM. Stage 3 and 4 is where you are most likely to have vivid dreams and the motor cortex is going crazy. Its best to wake up in stage 1.

The manifest content is the actual content of the dream, the latent content is the symbolic meaning of the dream

The surgeon severs the corpus callosum to cure epileptic seizures it works to connect the two hemispheres of the brain

The sensory cortex and motor cortex in either hemisphere of your brain controls the other side.

I would rather lose the right brain.

Alcohol - Increases the effect of the inhibitory GABA neurotransmitter and prevents Glutamate from exciting other cells
Heroin - Blocks the nature inhibitory opiod from being released, allowing dopamine to flood the system
Marijuana - Prevents inhibitory neurotransmitters from stopping the flow of dopamine, flooding the system with dopamine
Cocaine - Blocks the dopamine reuptake membrane, keeping dopamine in the synaptic cleft, repeatedly exciting the receiving neuron
Methamphetamine - Mimics dopamine, causing the neuron to expel the extra dopamine, repeatedly exciting the receiving neuron
Ecstasy - Warps the serotonin reuptake receptors, causing them to spit serotonin into the synaptic cleft, repeatedly exciting the receiving neuron

# data[].attributes.body
It shows that both nature and nurture, in Jim's case, apply to how a person develops. The discovery of the "psychopathic" trait in Jim shows that he is more a product of nurture than nature.

X-Ray

Produces a shadow of inner structures. Useful for showing bones.

Doesn't show activity or function

MRI

Uses magnetic force and radio waves to produce a structural image

Doesn't show activity or function

fMRI

Uses multiple MRI images to show how blood flow changes. Indicates brain activity and structure

CT(CAT)

Structural image made using computer tomography software from different angles

Doesn't show activity or function

PET

Traces radioactive glucose in the brain to show which areas are in use

EEG

Electrodes monitor and record brain waves in response to a stimulus

Doesn't show structure or localized activity

Agonist Molecule - mimics a neurotransmitter, fitting into the receptor site and exciting the site.

Antagonist Molecule - fits into the receptor site, but is not similar enough to stimulate it. Instead it blocks or inhibits the function of that neurotransmitter receptor

I can understand the process of neurotransmission and parts of a neuron

# data[].attributes.body
1. Neurons have many branches coming off the cell body, dendrites, that receive signals from other neurons

2. The signal gets sent into the nucleus which then sends out its own signal via its axon

3. The axon has a fatty layer called the myelin sheath that speeds up the signal

4. Neurotransmitters enter the synaptic gap between the axon and the dendrite of another neuron

5. The neurotransmitters bind to the receptor site of the receiving neuron and send the signal

6. The neurotransmitters then detach and either dissolve away in the synaptic gap or get retaken into the terminal branch

Addiction

Addiction follows the nature vs nurture battle

Some believe addiction is based in your genes and that having alcoholic relatives increases your chance to become an alcoholic yourself.

Others believe that becoming an alcoholic depends on the surroundings of your upbringing and the events that shape your life
