Post: Write an original post for this week’s discussion that includes one paragraph for each of the following prompts: Choose two parts of the brain described in the video above (Getting to Know Your Brain). Think about how their functions might be related. Describe how a neuron in one structure might depend on what is happening in a neuron in the other structure. Draw a conclusion about the way we localize functions in the brain: Was Broca justified in labeling a speech center in the brain with so few patients? How many brains are necessary to draw a conclusion? What does localization mean, after all? There is no strictly right or wrong answer to this question, only thoughtful responses. Describe an example in your own experience of misattributing a body function to a mental function or misattributing a mental function to a body function. For example, did doing chores as a kid really make you tired? 5. Post: Responses of 75 to 100 words each to at least two of your fellow class members.
