The person at highest risk for traumatic brain injury (TBI) is: a. black and economically disadvantaged. b. male and disabled. c. female and 20 years of age. d. an economically advantaged young adult. a. black and economically disadvantaged. Those at highest risk for TBI are children 0–4 years of age, older adolescents aged 15–19 years, and adults aged 65 years and older. Males have the highest incidence in every age group. TBI is highest among black and in lower- and median-income ...

communication Explain how the human senses assist in communication in the body and between individuals. Central nervous system The part of the nervous system which, in vertebrates, consists of the brain and spinal cord, to which sensory impulses are transmitted and from which motor impulses pass out, and which supervises and coordinates the activity of the entire nervous system. Peripheral nervous system The part of the nervous system that is outside the central nervous syst...

EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM  General Embryonic Development is Described as Either:  Trimesters (3x 3-Month Periods): o First: - Foundations of Major Organs o Second: - Development of Organs o Third: - Rapid Growth & Fully Functional Organs.  OR... Anatomical Stages: **(These are more relevant) o Pre-Embryonic Period: 0-2 Weeks  Fertilisation  Blastocyst Formation & Implantation  Gastrulation o Embryonic Period: 3-8 Weeks  Development & Differentia...

Adult brains have 4 regions - ANSWER-1. cerebrum (broken up into cerebral hemispheres) 2. cerebellum 3. brainstem 4. diencephalon T/F we start off with a neural tube during development which forms primary brain vesicles and secondary brain vesicles and then adult brain structures - ANSWER-true What does the diencephalon consist of? - ANSWER-- thalamus - hypothalamus - epithalamus What does the brain stem consist of? - ANSWER-- midbrain - pons -medulla What does the cerebrum co...

Neuro SCNM Exam Study Guide with Complete Solutions Cerebral Edema (vasogenic, cytotoxic hydrocephalic) - Ans:-There are three kinds: Brain is softer, gyri are flattened, sulci are narrowed, and ventricular cavities are compressed escapes from the blood vessels into the intercellular space of the brain. Localized (abscesses, neoplasms), or generalized ase in intracellular fluid secondary to cellular injury (generalized hypoxic/ischemic insult) from the intraventricular CSF flows to the ...
