Indicate whether the statement is true or false.
1. Stimulation of the brain using optogenetics is more precise than stimulation through surgically implanted
electrodes.

b. False
2. Microdialysis can be used to assess the chemicals present in a very small area of the brain.
a. True
b. False

b. False
6. Repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can be used to help treat those who suffer from auditory
hallucinations associated with schizophrenia.
a. True
b. False
7. Electroencephalograms (EEGs) were first developed and used by Raymond Damadian in Germany in 1924.
a. True
b. False

10. Biological psychology can be defined as the branch of psychology that studies the biological foundations of
behavior, emotions, and mental processes.
a. True
b. False
Indicate the answer choice that best completes the statement or answers the question.
11. To follow the pathways carrying information from one part of the brain to another, it would be best to use the
a. Golgi silver stain.
b. Nissl stain.
c. myelin stain.
d. antibody stain.
12. What is the BEST definition of heritability?
a. the amount of an individual’s phenotype that is due to genetic influences
b. the proportion of traits in an individual that is not influenced by environmental variables
c. the amount that a trait varies in a population that is due to genetics
d. the likelihood that a parent will pass on a particular trait to their offspring
13. If you want to identify clusters of cell bodies in a sample of tissue, it would be best to use the
a. Golgi silver stain.
b. Nissl stain.
c. myelin stain.
d. horseradish peroxidase stain.
14. A researcher is interested in discovering if one part of the brain, the orbitofrontal cortex, connects directly to
another part of the brain, the amygdala. Which of the following experimental methods would be the most
appropriate for this purpose?
a. Inject horseradish peroxidase into a rat’s amygdala and then see if cells in the orbitofrontal cortex are
stained.
b. Inject a human volunteer with a radioactive glucose and see what part of his brain is active while viewing
an emotionally charged set of pictures using a PET scan.
c. Look at a human brain with fMRI to see if the orbitofrontal cortex and amygdala are active at the same
times.
d. Stimulate the orbitofrontal cortex of a human volunteer during neurosurgery.
15. Anton van Leeuwenhoek advanced brain science by
a. demonstrating that neurons communicate via electricity.
