any specific parts of the brain we have to know indepth


Including their functions, you're meant to know:
Cerebrum: source of conscious thought and intelligence, sensory/association/motor areas
Cerebellum: coordination and movement
Hypothalamus: thermoreceptors, ADH, role in 'fight or flight' response
Medulla Oblongata - alters breathing/heart rate
Pituitary gland - anterior releases ACTH, posterior releases ADH

Hope that helps :smile:
There was a past paper q what is succession (4) but carent find it ?????
whats the quickest way to memorise and learn notes?
anyone know coordination of movement stuff

haha yeah there's hope if others have done it before hand and re stocked for caffeine so should be able to work now


From when the sun rises until 11.00 am I will be running on coffee. Let's hope it works! :crossedf:

I thought the fight or flight response is found in the peripheral nervous system, which would make it outside the brain and spinal cord?

You sure that's wise? :s-smilie: You don't want to burn out before the exam. Maybe go to sleep earlier and get up at 4am?

Same man, how did you find c4? and what board you doing for maths?
What are the ratios we should know for genetics?

Danger in which the 'flight or flight' response if for is detected by receptors in the ear and eye. These send impulses to the sensory areas - then to the association areas. The association areas interpret the impulses and activate the hypothalamus.

The hypothalamus then activates a bunch of stuff, which I'm too lazy to type
Can someone please explain pollarding and coppicing?
Thanks
