Document Summary
Lecture 5 biosocial development for the irst 2 years. Mulilevel framework, from cells society, for understanding the developmental process. Cerebral hemispheres: the right and let halves of the brain. Gyrus: a ridged or raised porion of a convoluted brain surface. Cerebral cortex: the outer covering of the cerebral hem. Which consists largely of nerve cell bodies and their branches. White mater: under the cortex, largely myelinated axons. Grey mater: areas of brain that are mostly cell bodies and have no myelin. Make sure to know the diagrams for labelling. Chambers inside the brain illed with cerebrospinal luid. Cerebrospinal luid can: absorb shock to protect brain from sudden movements, creates a medium for exchange of materials (ex: nutrients) Reach signiicant proporions of adult size, especially in brain development: evidence that biosocial growth is the foundaion for cogniion and social maturity o.
