Illustration of the areas of the brain that are active while taking a written test. The reading area (light blue area) is activated and the prefrontal cortex (small red area) activates the working memory, reasoning and language. The temporal lobe (green area) activates short-term memory. The visual cortex (pink area) is activated to a greater or lesser extent depending on the test and the motor cortex (orange area) activates the hand.

SYNAPSE. SYNAPSE LTP (long-term potentiation). Mechanism of LTP (long-term potentiation), which plays a role in learning. Stage 1 (See images no. 11969 05 and 11970 05 for stages 2 and 3). In response to a stimulus (sight, taste, touch, etc.), an electrical signal is produced which triggers the release of massive quantities of glutamate (purple triangles) by the presynaptic element. This in turn triggers a massive release of calcium (red spheres) in the dendrite (postsynaptic element), se

ELBOW, X-RAY. ELBOW, X-RAY The elbow is the articular region forming the joint between the upper arm and the forearm. The elbow joint is composed of three bony articulations: the humeroradial, humeroulnar and radioulnar joints. In the anterior region of the elbow joint, the biceps is situated in the antecubital fossa. The olecranon, the upper extremity of the ulna, forms the posterior aspect of the elbow joint over which passes the medial nerve. Colorized x-ray.

Illustration of the nerve roots of the spinal nerves coming out of the vertebrae. The anterior ramus will innervate the muscles as well as the structure of the members and the lateral and ventral parts of the trunk. The posterior ramus will innervate deep muscles and the back's skin. Anterior roots leave the communicating rami and join the sympathetic trunk's glands on each side of the vertebral body.

BRAIN, SCAN. BRAIN, SCAN The brain is divided into two hemispheres bridged by a mass of nerve fibers, the corpus callosum. The brain as a whole (encephalon) is composed of these areas along with the brain stem (the prolongation of the spinal cord), and the cerebellum (a sort of branch circuit located in the posterior region of the skull). Deep grooves separate the brain into lobes designated by the names of the overlying skull bones: frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital. Seen here, a normal
