CHAPTER 3 NEUROSCIENCE CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the key methods that scientists use to learn about brain anatomy and functioning. • Neuroscientists examine autopsy tissue and patients with localized brain damage to learn about brain anatomy and brain function. • EEGs and neuroimaging, such as PET scans and fMRI, allow scientists to study brain function in the living brain. 2. Describe the two major types of cells in the nervous system and describe the prima...

What is the difference between anatomy and physiology? 2. The function of the nervous system is to integrate and control the other body systems. Explain how the nervous system does this. 3. List the 2 parts of the nervous system. 4. How are the parts of the central nervous system protected? 5. Collections of cell bodies inside the central nervous system are called , and the collection of nerve axons in the central nervous system are called . 6. What is included in the peripheral nervous ...
