Intro Behavioral Neuroscience
(1) What is your favorite brain structure we have discussed in class? What is the function of this structure? Describe its location in the brain using 2 of the anatomical/directional terms. Be sure to use another structure as a point of reference for each (e.g., dorsal to the thalamus & posterior to the 3rd ventricle) Why is it your favorite?
(2) What are the three categories of sensory receptors that we discussed in class? (Hint: they're ? receptors) What type of stimulation do each of these receptors respond to? Which senses are each of these receptor types involved in?

(3) Using the brain below, color in the visual cortex (V1), the auditory cortex (Heschl's Gyrus). Broca's Area, Wernicke's Area, and the gustatory cortex. Also label the Sylvian Fissure, the central gyrus, and the 4 lobes of the brain.
