The nervous system is divided into peripheral and central nervous system. The central nervous system is formed by the brain and spinal cord. Within the brain there are many structures with many different functions, such as the thalamus, hippocampus, cerebral cortex, and the amygdala....
Which lobe of the brain contains the amygdala? What type of neurons are in the brain? What supplies blood to the medulla? What does the left cerebellum control? Where is your medulla oblongata located? What do different parts of the brain do?
Clinical psychologist Warren Man told the BBC, “Our fears are hard-wired into our brains - we don’t need to learn to be afraid of animals like snakes or spiders.” But phobias are stronger than just fears. Warren says, “An area called the amygdala in the brain is recognizing a ...

Amygdala or corpus amygdaloideum is a pair of almond-shaped neurons (nerve cells) located deep in the brain’s medial temporal lobe (the part of the brain situated behind the temples within the skull). In humans, this is a subcortical brain structure (present deep beneath the brain surface ...
A part of the brain called the hippocampus is closely connected with the amygdala. The hippocampus and prefrontal cortex help the brain interpret the perceived threat. They are involved in a higher-level processing of context, which helps a person know whether a perceived threat is real. ...
根据下文In a study,after participants expressed their emotions,brain images showed a decrease in the brain activity in the amygdala,the part of the brain associated with feelings,indicating a calming effect on the brain(在一项研究中,在参与者表达自己的情绪后,大脑图像显示杏仁核的大脑活动减少,杏仁核...
Emotions, like fear and love, are carried out bythe limbic system, which is located in the temporal lobe. While the limbic system is made up of multiple parts of the brain, the center of emotional processing is the amygdala, which receives input from other brain functions, like memory and...
