COGS 115 - MIDTERM 1 VALUATION EXAM WITH
EXAM SOLUTIONS|GRADED A+
alternate splicing - Answer-building different proteins by combining exons of a gene in
different ways
/.architectural constraints - Answer-3 forms
-neural unit
-local circuits
-macrolevel circuits
structure and function of networks
good to establish relationship between sensory motor areas, but relationship bw these
constraints and knowledge systems not as clear as representational constraints
/.autonomic ganglia - Answer-collections of neurons outside the central nervous system
provide autonomic innervation of body organs
/.β-catenin - Answer-transcription factor
destroyed by Wnt
initially released by primitive streak
part of concentration gradient with Wnt to make anterior-posterior head structures
(segmentation)
/.blastomeres - Answer-individual cells of blastula
/.blastocyst - Answer-hollow ball of cells
/.blastula - Answer-earliest stage of embryo
spherical clump of cells
/.Caenorhabditis elegans/ C. elegans - Answer-microscopic roundworm
model of cell differentiation
mitotic lineage
/.callosal agenesis - Answer-born without a corpus callosum
/.cell-cell interactions - Answer-developing cells communicate with one another and
guide each other's fate
/.cellularization - Answer-process in which cell walls are formed between nuclei in a
syncytium (blob, mixture, no walls)
, /.chronotropic constraint - Answer-temporal unfolding of events across course of
development
least direct relationship to knowledge systems
/.chordin - Answer-gene that encodes chordin
organizer-like effect on ectoderm, shifting from epidermal to neural fate
/.chromosome - Answer-A threadlike, gene-carrying structure found in the nucleus.
Each chromosome consists of one very long DNA molecule and associated proteins.
/.colinearity - Answer-property of Hox genes
order on chromosome matches order expressed along anterior-posterior axis
/.constructivism(-ist) - Answer-interaction between biological systems and experience of
organism
/.core concept/knowledge - Answer-knowledge in infants
available to child in absence of any prior direct experience of the concept
/.corpus callosum (CC) - Answer-Relays information between the two cerebral
hemispheres
/.cortical lamination - Answer-6 layers of neocortex
1 - most superficial
6 - innermost
differ by type of cell and pattern of connection
/.cortical plate - Answer-after marginal layer (second from outside)
comes from preplate
neurons migrate here and will become the neocortex
/.cortical preplate - Answer-region between ventricular zone and marginal zone in
developing cerebral cortex
grey matter of neocortex
/.cranial nerves - Answer-12 pairs of nerves arising from the brain
/.diencephalon - Answer-other forebrain
thalamus and hypothalamus
/.dorsal root ganglion (DRG) - Answer-collection of neuron cell bodies embedded in
vertebrate dorsal roots of spinal cord
provide neurites to gather sensory information from periphery and transmit it to dorsal
horn of spinal cord
/.domain-specific - Answer-Nativist ideas
