4. dr. ahmed will use a(n) or a three dimensional map of the brain, and a computer, to make sure the electrode is place in the correct location in the rat. a. hemispheric atlas b. stereotaxic atlas c. hemispheric guide d. stereotaxic guide 5. a rat that will starve if not force fed is produced by: a. stimulating the ventromedial hypothalamus. b. destroying the ventromedial hypothalamus. c. destroying the lateral hypothalamus. d. stimulating the lateral hypothalamus. 6. research suggests that the lateral and ventromedial hypothalamus: a. are a self-contained network that controls hunger and satiation. b. are the hunger and satiation regions of the brain respectively. c. are part of a larger brain network that controls eating behavior. d. are the satiation and hunger regions of the brain respectively. 7. after a time, rats who have had their lateral or ventromedial hypothalamus destroyed: a. begin to lose weight if they initially gained weight, or gain weight if they initially lost weight. b. establish a new set point for their weight. c. die from problems with food consumption despite interventions from caregivers. d. return to their pre-surgery weight. 8. when studying motivated behavior, including eating, rats can be used to predict human behavior because the in a rat’s brain is similar to that of a human. a. frontal lobes and parietal lobes b. pons and cerebellum c. lateral hypothalamus and ventromedial hypothalamus d. pituitary gland and the thalamus 9. researchers usually study activity in the hypothalamus by: a. studying pet scans of the hypothalamus in rats. b. implanting electrodes in the brains of rats. c. studying pet scans of the hypothalamus in humans. d. implanting electrodes in the brains of humans. 10. a rat in an experiment has started eating more food. what have experimenters likely done to the rat? a. they have destroyed the lateral hypothalamus or destroyed the ventromedial hypothalamus. b. they have destroyed the lateral hypothalamus or stimulated the ventromedial hypothalamus. c. they have stimulated the lateral hypothalamus or stimulated the ventromedial hypothalamus. d. they have stimulated the lateral hypothalamus or destroyed the ventromedial hypothalamus.
