What does the tip of the tongue state demonstrate about how words are stored in the brain? there are many complex connections among words involving various aspects of sound and meaning phonological information is stored completely separately from semantic information word storage and retrieval is based solely on word meanings words are stored in isolation and are rarely associated with each other

You are working in a neurolinguistics research lab, doing studies on typical language processing in adults. When your subjects step into the sound booth and begin hearing recorded speech, in which regions of the brain do you expect to see activity? Describe the sequence and function of these areas during the listening activity.
Some people will listen to a record backwards and hear hidden messages. Because the phonemes are scrambled and not actually an encoded phrase, we can consider this an example of what quality of speech perception? Group of answer choices Heuristics, "Top down" processing, interpreting ambiguous stimuli Phonemic restoration Sound spectogram Formants
Which of the following language specializations is not a function of the left hemisphere in the human brain? Group of answer choices Speaker recognition Articulation Word recognition Comprehension
Which of the following is not a function of how the brain interprets a stimulus? Links to prior memories via the limbic system ability to identify submodalities pattern recognition O magnitude estimation
You are listening to a deep bass beat (a very low pitched sound). Which statement best describes how neurons in the primary auditory cortex are activating? Group of answer choices Neurons in the rostral end of the primary auditory cortex are activating most Neurons in the caudal end of the primary auditory cortex are activating most Neurons in the middle of the primary auditory cortex are activating most All the neurons in the primary auditory cortex are activating a similar amount
Which of the following is NOT true about hemispheric lateralization? The degree to which language shows hemispheric lateralization is affected by whether someone is left-handed or right-handed. All of the answer options are true about hemispheric lateralization. In terms of lateralization function, individual people tend to be more right-brain (creative) or left-brain (scientific). Birds can show hemispheric lateralization when it comes to bird songs. For humans, the emotional component of language is more often influenced by the right hemisphere.
Which of the following statements about the corpus callosum is false? The corpus callosum is inferior to the cerebrum. The corpus callosum is anterior to the brainstem. The corpus callosum is lateral to the hippocampus. The corpus callosum is caudal to the olfactory bulbs.
If an individual becomes blind due to injury or disease, what change will accompany learning to read using Braille? The occipital lobes will decrease in size The touch area of the somatosensory cortex related to the fingers will increase in area The frontal lobes will develop greater mapping skills The motor cortex controlling the eyes and face will decrease in area
Which of the following is (are) tonotopic? the basilar membrane the lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus (LGN) the auditory cortex the olivary nucleus More than one of the above is tonotopic.
Match the structure in the left column with its description in the right column. Drag and drop options on the right-hand side to swap positions and match with items on the left. Reordering may cause items on the right- hand side to swap positions. Routing center for all sensory tracts except olfactory Commissural tracts that connect the lateral hemispheres Secretes melatonin Balance & coordination Visual reflexes Divides the lateral hemispheres Controls many functions related to homeostasis (hunger, thirst, temperature) Thalamus Superior Colliculi Cerebellum Hypothalamus Corpus Callosum Longitudinal fissure Pineal Body ||| ||| ||| ||| ||| ||| |||
Which of these is the BEST example of top-down processing? When Sarah listens to someone speaking Spanish, she can easily hear where one words ends and another begins because she is fluent in Spanish. Shane's sense of taste is based primarily on the chemicals that activate receptors on his tongue. John is able to see blue objects because he has cones that respond to short-wavelength light. Tamara's perception of line length is driven primarily by the true length of the line in space.
The sensory contex is the area of your brain that processes sensations from your body. Each section of the sensory cortex processes information from a different body part. Larger body parts, such as you back or thighs, do not necessarily receive more space the sensory cortex. Explain why larger areas of your body such as your stomach back or thighs do not have a large space in the sensory cortex of the brain and why is it important that these areas cannot distinguish minor sensations.
