Fred's Bio 201 Nervous System Quiz: Three Lobes And A Baby

1. What is the name of this structure that serves as the terminal receptor of Cranial Nerve 1?

Cerebellum

Corpus Callosum

Pituitary Gland

Olfactory Bulb: note that it is the terminal receptor of Cranial Nerve 1

The olfactory bulb is responsible for processing sensory information related to smell, making it the correct answer. The other options are unrelated structures that do not serve as receptors for Cranial Nerve 1.

Explanation

The olfactory bulb is responsible for processing sensory information related to smell, making it the correct answer. The other options are unrelated structures that do not serve as receptors for Cranial Nerve 1.

2. What is the name of this area with an internal view of an external feature, located near Spinal Nerve 2?

Occipital Lobe

Hippocampus

Cingulate Gyrus

Optic Chiasma.

The correct answer is Optic Chiasma, which is located near Spinal Nerve 2 and relates to vision processing. The other options are not anatomically associated with Spinal Nerve 2 or external features.

Explanation

The correct answer is Optic Chiasma, which is located near Spinal Nerve 2 and relates to vision processing. The other options are not anatomically associated with Spinal Nerve 2 or external features.

3. Identify this group and its components (interior view of external features).

Group: Corpora Quadrigemina. Features: Superior and Inferior Colliculi

Group: Thalamus. Features: Hypothalamus and Amygdala.

Group: Medulla Oblongata. Features: Pons and Cerebellum.

Group: Pituitary Gland. Features: Pineal Gland and Optic Chiasm.

The question is asking about the Corpora Quadrigemina and its components, the Superior and Inferior Colliculi. The incorrect answers provided mention other brain structures with different features, making them incorrect choices.

Explanation

The question is asking about the Corpora Quadrigemina and its components, the Superior and Inferior Colliculi. The incorrect answers provided mention other brain structures with different features, making them incorrect choices.

4. What structure is located just superior to the pinial gland?

Cerebral Aqueduct: Connects the third and fourth ventricles.

Choroid Plexus: Where cerebrospinal fluid is created.

Hippocampus: Involved in memory and learning.

Pituitary Gland: Regulates hormone production.

The correct answer is the Choroid Plexus, as it is responsible for the production of cerebrospinal fluid. The other structures listed play different roles in the brain and are not directly located just superior to the pinial gland.

Explanation

The correct answer is the Choroid Plexus, as it is responsible for the production of cerebrospinal fluid. The other structures listed play different roles in the brain and are not directly located just superior to the pinial gland.

5. What is the name of this space? (C)

Foramen of Monro

Foramen of Luschka

Interventricular Foramen

Cerebral Aqueduct (Aqueduct of Sylvius)

The correct answer is Cerebral Aqueduct (Aqueduct of Sylvius), as it is the narrow tube-like structure in the midbrain that connects the third and fourth ventricles of the brain. The other options mentioned are also spaces in the brain, but they do not correspond to the space labeled as (C) in anatomy.

Explanation

The correct answer is Cerebral Aqueduct (Aqueduct of Sylvius), as it is the narrow tube-like structure in the midbrain that connects the third and fourth ventricles of the brain. The other options mentioned are also spaces in the brain, but they do not correspond to the space labeled as (C) in anatomy.

6. What is the name of this area in the brain?

Corpus Callosum

Cerebellum

4th ventricle (again, I know.)

Hippocampus

The 4th ventricle is a fluid-filled cavity within the human brain that is continuous with the central canal of the spinal cord. It is located in the hindbrain, situated between the cerebellum and the brainstem. The other options mentioned are different structures within the brain that do not match the description of the 4th ventricle.

Explanation

The 4th ventricle is a fluid-filled cavity within the human brain that is continuous with the central canal of the spinal cord. It is located in the hindbrain, situated between the cerebellum and the brainstem. The other options mentioned are different structures within the brain that do not match the description of the 4th ventricle.

7. Who is the prettiest little girl ever?

Emma

Sophie

Ellie!!!

Ava

This question is purely subjective and meant to bring a smile to the reader's face. The correct answer is Ellie, but beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.

Explanation

This question is purely subjective and meant to bring a smile to the reader's face. The correct answer is Ellie, but beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.

8. What is the name of this space in the human body? (A)

Pineal Gland

Corpus Callosum

Third Ventricle

Cerebrospinal Fluid

The space referred to as (A) is the Third Ventricle, which is a fluid-filled cavity in the brain.

Explanation

The space referred to as (A) is the Third Ventricle, which is a fluid-filled cavity in the brain.

9. What is the name of this space?

Spinal Cord

Fourth Ventricle

Frontal Lobe

Cerebellum

The Fourth Ventricle is a space located in the brain, specifically in the hindbrain. It is filled with cerebrospinal fluid and plays an important role in the circulation and drainage of this fluid.

Explanation

The Fourth Ventricle is a space located in the brain, specifically in the hindbrain. It is filled with cerebrospinal fluid and plays an important role in the circulation and drainage of this fluid.
