Document Summary
Need to know the types of hormones and their main functions. Know the different aspects about the negative feedback loop; such as which hormones are secreted to shut down function of other hormones, and basics about the connections. This distinction means organizational as what things look like and where they go, while activational means how things act. Neurons can only communicate limited amount of information, and there is only so much information that can be conveyed by single action potential, and it is limited in some way. We end up of having different types of speci c neurons, and each specializes in different aspects of our environment which respond differently to different types of stimulations (e. g. vibration) H. m. and k. c. had similar damage but different effects of them. It is very useful looking at animal models and looking at how lesions at different locations affect different behavioural activities.
