The emotional brain is the

• Cerebrum

• Cerebellum

• Limbic System

• Brain Stem

The assumption that every behavior has its specific place in the brain and is associated with a certain brain area.

• Localization

• Lateralization

• Neuroplasticity

• Neurotransmission

The ability of the brain to change throughout the course of life

• Localization

• Lateralization

• Neuroplasticity

• Neurotransmission

On the smallest scale, at the level of a single neuron: the ability of the neuron to form new synaptic connections and break up the old ones

• Neural pruning

• Neural Networks

• Synaptic Plasticity

• Cortical Remapping

On the largest scale: the phenomenon when brain area X assumes the functions of brain area Y

• Neural pruning

• Neural Networks

• Synaptic Plasticity

• Cortical Remapping

It consists of many interconnected neurons which receives information and provides a response

• Neural pruning

• Neural Networks

• Synaptic Plasticity

• Cortical Remapping

The reduction in density as some neural pathways in the brain are no longer needed.

• Neural pruning

• Neural Networks

• Synaptic Plasticity

• Cortical Remapping

The key idea that performance deterioration depends on the percentage of cortex destroyed but not on the location of the destroyed cells.

• Localization

• Principle of Mass Action

• Equipotentiality

• Neuroplasticity
