-The confusing thing about the Limbic system is scientists can’t agree on what systems are in the limbic system and which are not. 
-Although there is a disagreement about some of the systems, the 4 main structures are the Hypothalamus, Amygdalae, Thalamus and the hippocampus.]]> 2021-02-04 17:25:05 UTC https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1164991098 hastuehrenberg https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1183507225 -The hippocampi are an example of a function within the Limbic System.
- The hippocampi are located on the inside edge of the temporal lobes and are needed for memory formation.
-This helps convert your short term memories into long term memories.
-When your hippocampus is damaged it will not form any new short term memories, but your long term memories will stay intact.]]> 2021-02-09 17:28:34 UTC https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1183507225 hastuehrenberg https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1183530620 -The amygdalae is located on top of the front portion of each hippocampus.
-That are important for processing emotion and decision making.
-They communicates closely with the hippocampus and hypothalamus.
-They are the cause of aggressive traits.
-When they are stimulated, it produces feeling of fear/anxiety or anger/violence.
-On the other hand when they are destroyed it can make a person feel mellow and make you impulsive and have a disregard for consequences.]]> 2021-02-09 17:32:23 UTC https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1183530620 hastuehrenberg https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1188030391 -‘hypo’ meaning below because it is located below the thalamus.
-The hypothalamus’ is the area of the brain that regulates body temperature, thirst, appetite and several other processes required to live.
-It regulated the automatic nervous system by controlling the endocrine system and triggering the release of hormone, one well known called adrenaline.]]> 2021-02-10 15:46:46 UTC https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1188030391 hastuehrenberg https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1188050959 This system is important because 
-It communicates with the Limbic System to regulate things such as our heartbeat and blood pressure.
-This proving that if something hurts on your body it could be more connected to your mind than you think.]]> 2021-02-10 15:50:18 UTC https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1188050959 hastuehrenberg https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1193097264 -The brain has two, one located on the left and the other on the right.
-The Thalamus’ purpose is the collect information that our nerves send it when touching,tasting,seeing or hearing something and it tells the body how to react. In fact our senses are a factor of emotions because of how the thalamus reacts to the message from our nerves.
-The smelling sense was not included because it actually bypasses the thalamus and has its own area of the brain.]]> 2021-02-11 16:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1193097264 hastuehrenberg https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1193955501 -these are the structures that form a complex network with the Limbic system.
-Each of the para Limbic structures are connected with emotions or basic cognitive processes. For example the anterior cingulate gyrus is tied to motivation and drive.]]> 2021-02-11 18:41:24 UTC https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1193955501 hastuehrenberg https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1197308154 -with the Limbic system you get your survival traits which tell you when to be hyper vigilant in times of distress or danger; also fighting or fleeing in the slightest provocation.
-Also the Limbic system gives us basic neuroception, which is the ability to distinguish someone or something as a possible threat and this then ties into the fight or flight response. This also is depicts just the opposite, if something or someone is safe and secure which this is made possible by the Limbic system’s capacity to form emotional connections.]]> 2021-02-12 16:55:55 UTC https://padlet.com/hastuehrenberg/llp730vgmlufmico/wish/1197308154
