Describe the structure of a neuron and the process of neural communication.Describe the structure of a neuron and the process of neural communication. Refer to dendrites, axons, action potential, synapse, threshold, reuptake, and all-or-none response (See Figure 2.1 and 2.2)

Describe how some of the major neurotransmitters influence thought and behavior (See Table 2.1). Explain how drugs affect thought and behavior in terms of neurotransmitters.

Describe the different functions of the right and left hemispheres of the brain (see Fig. 2.20, 2.21, 2.22, 2.23, 2.24). What physical structures integrate the functions? Why would a left-handed person have a dominant right hemisphere, and how does this make them different from a right handed person?

Describe personal examples of selective attention, inattentional blindness, and change blindness.
