Answer
Question
cytoskeleton protein filaments   show
🗑
show cytoskeleton protein filament that exists in 2 states: G-actin and F-actin  
🗑
show subunit of actin that serves as a monomer building block and assembles into F-actin  
🗑
F-actin (filament actin)   show
🗑
show process of combining many monomers into a polymer  
🗑
ADF/cofilin (actin-depolymerization factor/cofilin)   show
🗑
Ser-3   show
🗑
show kinase that phosphorylates the ADF/cofilin site  
🗑
adhesion molecules   show
🗑
neural cadherins   show
🗑
memory modulation framework   show
🗑
memory modulators   show
🗑
epinephrine (EPI, aka. adrenaline)   show
🗑
adrenoreceptors   show
🗑
show an adrenergic neurotransmitter  
🗑
show drugs that mimic the effects of epinephrine  
🗑
show receptors that bind to adrenergics  
🗑
propranolol   show
🗑
show region of the amygdala that includes the basal and lateral nuclei and is critically involved in memory modulation and storing fear memories and plays and important role in attaching value to outcomes  
🗑
nucleus accumbens   show
🗑
show frontal part of the cingulate cortex, believed to be involved in modulating memory formation  
🗑
show arises from the medulla and innervates the viscera of the thoracic and abdominal cavities, and carried info about the body into the brain  
🗑
NTS (solitary tract nucleus)   show
🗑
show adrenal hormone that can modulate memory storage and is classified as a glucocorticoid  
🗑
show hormone involved in the metabolism of glucose and which can directly enter the brain  
🗑
show drug that is a glucocorticoid receptor agonist  
🗑
clenbuterol   show
🗑
show small region of the brain that contains only about 3,000 neurons but which projects broadly and provides nearly all the norepinephrine to the cortex, limbic system, thalamus, and hypothalamus  
🗑
show syndrome in which individuals have unusually vivid recall of the traumatic events they experienced, accompanied by severe emotional responses  
🗑
show method used to decrease the likelihood that the person who experience a trauma will develop PTSD  
🗑
show brief crisis intervention usually administered within days of a traumatic event in which the trauma-exposed individual is encouraged to talk about his or her feelings and reactions to the event  
🗑
active trace theory   show
🗑
show theory that assumes that the retrieval of memory itself can disrupt an established memory trace but that the retrieval also initiates another round of protein synthesis so that the trace is "reconsolidated"  
🗑
show amnesia that is more pronounced for recently experienced events that for more remotely experienced events  
🗑
standard model of systems consolidation   show
🗑
show theory that assumes that a change in the strength of the memory trace is brought about by interactions b/t the MTH system and neocortex and which is assumed to take place over a long period of time, after the memory is initially established  
🗑
show theory of systems consolidation that assumes that the medial temporal hippocampal system is always required to retrieve episodic memories but that semantic memories can become independent of this system  
🗑
show method for imaging regional activity in the brain while the participant is engaged in cognitive activity  
🗑
show method for studying how rodents acquire food preferences from other rodents  
🗑
show system that is organized specifically to ensure that some particular need is met  
🗑
show innate behaviors that are supported by the fear system  
🗑
show measure of fear response in rodents that is dependent upon the distance of a predator; when a potential predator is at a distance a rat will freeze, but when the predator moves within striking distance, a rat might attempt to flee  
🗑
PAG (periaqueductal gray)   show
🗑
show region of the brain responsible for changes in the autonomic responses produced by the sympathetic nervous system that prepare an animal for action  
🗑
amygdala   show
🗑
show subnucleus of the CE of the amygdala that is thought to be an important part of the neural basis of fear  
🗑
show subnucelus of the CE of the amygdala thought to be an important part of the neural basis of fear; functions as the output region of the amygdala; when its neurons are activated, they in turn activate neurons in the PAG and LH that generate fear behaviors  
🗑
subcortical pathway   show
🗑
show pathway that carries info from the sensory thalamus to the neocortical regions of the brain where a richer, more detailed representation of the experience is constructed  
🗑
show region of the brain that supports learned fear to an auditory stimulus by projecting the stimulus directly to the amygdala  
🗑
show autonomic nervous system response related to the skin's ability to conduct electricity, used to measure defensive fear behavior  
🗑
instrumental responses (aka. instrumental behavior)   show
🗑
extinction   show
🗑
show hypothesis that assumes extinction is due to the CS-alone presentation eliminating the original CS-US association  
🗑
show hypothesis that assumes extinction produces a new association called a CS-noUS association, which the original CS-US association that produced the CR remains intact  
🗑
show recovery of an habituated response that occurs "spontaneously" with the passage of time  
🗑
show one of several ways to recover an extinguished CR, achieved by changing the context for extinction but later returning an animal to the training context to recover the CR  
🗑
show new association generated when the CS is no longer presented with the US; forms the basis of the competing memory theory in extinction studies  
🗑
intercalated neurons   show
🗑
infralimbic region (aka. infralimbic medial prefrontal cortex)   show
🗑
show drug that is a partial agonist and that binds to the glycine site of the NMDA receptor to enhance its opening  
🗑
exposure therapy   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
