They also showed differential morphological changes in hippocampus and amygdala. We observed decline in CA1‚ hilar region and dentate gyrus (DG) volumes with basolateral amygdalar hypertrophy (BLA). Interestingly‚ chronic treatment with NAC restored the depression-induced behavioural and cognitive deficits. We

begin to work less efficiently. As the disease progresses‚ the neurons lose their capability of functioning and communicating with one another‚ leading to neuron death. With the progression of AD the damage spreads to the hippocampus‚ a brain structure. The hippocampus is vital for forming memories. As more and more neurons die‚ regions of the brain that are affected begin to shrink. By the end stage of Alzheimer’s disease‚ brain tissue has shrank drastically and damage is widespread. (Huether

when someone has less energy they will most likely pay more attention in class. Students have more room for knowledge when they exercise. At recess kids use lots of energy on the playground. When you exercise more brain cells are born in the hippocampus . Exercise prevents Alzhiemers‚ which is good. Less kids will forget stuff in there locker or classroom.

When the brain is injured the hippocampus is affected and this affects memory process. This makes it difficulty for people to transfer information from the short term memory to long term memory. The study showed that the hippocampus is important in memory processing (Damasio‚ Grabowski &Frank‚

contains the hypothalamus‚ amygdala‚ and hippocampus is in charge of emotions‚ memories‚ and stimulation which gives its nickname of the “emotional brain.” The hypothalamus controls homeostasis‚ emotion‚ thirst‚ hunger‚ circadian rhythms‚ the autonomic nervous system‚ and even the pituitary gland. The hypothalamus is located in front of the thalamus. There is the amygdala which is in the temporal lobe which can help evoke memories‚ emotions‚ and fear. The hippocampus is medial to the temporal lobe and

Abstract This review focuses on the possible factors that play a role on the development of psychological disorders such as genetic‚ biological and environmental influences whereby genetic influence involve the imbalance of neurotransmitters that prevent individual’s brain from functioning efficiently as compared to healthy individuals whereas biological influences such as cognitive deficits that impaired partial brain functions of individuals while environmental influence does not directly relates

Depression is a mood disorder and the biomedical model portrays one way in which it can be understood. The biomedical model focuses on biological factors alone in an attempt to explain an illness or a disorder. It describes illnesses as disturbances within the human body that can be altered and corrected. Very unlike the biopsychosocial model‚ it doesn’t include other factors that may contribute to a disorder such as their psychological state or their social context. The biomedical model focuses
