The Brodmann areas are a method of mapping the cortex and its distinct functions that was developed by Korbinian Brodmann, after whom the areas are named.

Korbinian Brodmann (November 17, 1868 – August 22, 1918) was a German neurologist best known for classifying the cerebral cortex into 52 distinct regions based on cytoarchitectonic (histological) characteristics. These areas are now commonly known as Brodmann areas.

The Brodmann classification divides the cortex into approximately 52 sequentially numbered areas, though some regions have since been subdivided and others are only found in non-human primates.

It is in charge of motor movements such as contralateral finger/hand/wrist or orofacial movements, learned motor sequences, breathing control, and voluntary blinking. The primary visual cortex (Brodmann area 17) is located on the medial surface of the occipital lobe, in and on either side of the calcarine sulcus.

Why is a longitudinal study better than a cross-sectional study for examining how many years cancer survivors stay in remission?
Liono4ka [1.6K]
<span>A cross-sectional study examines all of the participants at one time. So for a cross-sectional study of cancer survivors, we would gather some sample of former patients and find out how long they have been in remission.

The problem with that cross-sectional design is we would be missing the people whose cancer had returned and caused them to die before our experiment started; we would have introduced a problem called "survivor bias" by only counting people who were STILL in remission and still alive.

A better experiment will use a longitudinal design of enrolling people whose cancer has just gone into remission, and following them to see how long they stay healthy.</span>

Consider the scenarios described below. Match the concept described by the scenario with the theory.
astraxan [27]

Answer:

1 - natural selection

2 - uniformitarianism

3- inheritance of acquired characteristics

4 - catastrophism

Explanation:

1. Natural selection refers to the evolution of organism or changes in the characterstics of organism depending on the environmental conditions. Hence, the lizard moved on fantasy island evolved with larger head and stronger bites as per the environmental condition.

2. The concept of Uniformitarianism states that the natural geological processes happening in present have already occured in past with same intesity and rate. Hence, geologist uses the phrase "The present is the key to the past" for  formation of mountain, rock formation and water movements.

3. Inheritance of acquired characteristics are the characteristic acquird by the ancestors and transmitted that gradually acquired characteristic to their progeny. Hence, the rats acquire the charactieristics and transfered it to the next generations.

4. Catastrophism means the regular occurrence of meteorological and geological disturbances to explain the existence the fossil record. Hence, teh mass exticiton due to asteroid impact is an example of Catastrophism.

So, the correct options in sequential order is natural selection, uniformitarianism, inheritance of acquired characteristics, and catastrophism.
