Psychology is the scientific study of human behavior, mental processes, emotions, and personality. It is an important subject for competitive exams such as PPSC, FPSC, NTS, OTS, KPPSC, BPSC, AJKPSC, CSS, and PMS.

Regarding the electrical activity of neurons, which of the following is?

A Neurons are integrators; they can have a vast number of different inputs, but they produce just a single output signal, which they transmit to their targets

B There is a small voltage difference between the inside and the outside of the neuron in it resting state, known as the action potential

C The inputs to neurons are tiny amounts of chemical neurotransmitters

D In the steady state neurons, there is an active pumping of ions across the neuronal membrane

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: There is a small voltage difference between the inside and the outside of the neuron in it resting state, known as the action potential

Neurotransmission, and thus brain function, can be disrupted by:

A Antagonists

B Agonists

C A and B

D Synapses

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: A and B

Which one of the following do we know to be true about inhibitory neurotransmitters?

A Inhibitory neurotransmitters increase the excitability of a cell

B The classic inhibitory neurotransmitter is glutamate

C Increasing chloride ion flow into the interior of the cell decreases the cell’s negativity

D Increasing the cell’s negativity is called hyperpolarization

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: Increasing the cell’s negativity is called hyperpolarization

If we surveyed a sample of neuroscientists, which part of the brain would they report as most preferable to lose?

A A cubic centimeter of glial cells because the damage would be less disabling

B A cubic centimeter of subcortex because the damage would be less disabling

C A cubic centimeter of spinal cord because the damage would be less disabling

D A cubic centimeter of cortex because the damage would be less disabling

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: A cubic centimeter of cortex because the damage would be less disabling

Communication among the neurons requires two main activities. Electrical signals which are generated by__and chemical signals which are generated by.

A Resting potentials, neurotransmitters

B Neurotransmitters, axon potentials

C Neurotransmitters, depolarization

D Axon potentials; neurotransmitters

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: Axon potentials; neurotransmitters

Early research on the patterns of behavior observed in people during epileptic seizures advanced the idea that:

A Seizure were caused by chemical discharges in the brain

B The cortex can be surgically removed to reduce seizures

C Brain regions have highly specialized functions

D (b) and (c)

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: (b) and (c)

Which, if any, of the following are true? 1: Each region of the neocortex may contain more specialized modules. 2: Damage to a given volume of neocortical tissue tends to be more profoundly disabling than damage to the same volume of the subcortex. 3: Functional neuro-imaging methods allow us to observe which brain regions are active.

A 1 & 2

B 2 & 3

C 1 & 3

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: 1 & 3

Identify the assertion from those given below, with regard to damage to the brain’s hemispheres:

A Serve hemi-neglect often results from damage to the left parietal lobe

B Patients with hemi-neglect may ignore the entire left half of the world

C The right hemisphere might be able to support bilateral spatial attentional processes

D When the left hemisphere is damaged the right may be able to take over processes that would normally depend on the left hemisphere

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: Serve hemi-neglect often results from damage to the left parietal lobe

Which nervous system controls the activity of the structures inside your body, such as your heart or your endocrine glands?

A Autonomic nervous system, which includes the sympathetic and parasympathetic system

B Somatic system, which includes the sympathetic system and parasympathetic system

C Autonomic system, which includes the central and somatic system

D Somatic system, which includes the central and autonomic system

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: Autonomic nervous system, which includes the sympathetic and parasympathetic system

Which of the following is NOT true of the human brain?

A The cerebellum plays a key role in making movement smooth and efficient, and lies at the black of the brain

B The motor and sensory systems do not interact

C The spinal cord, made up of both axons and ganglia, provides us with essential reflexes

D The brain comprises two halves-or hemispheres

Review Detailed Answer

Correct Answer: The motor and sensory systems do not interact
