Pre-frontal Cortex (PFC)

The PFC is often one of the last regions of the cerebral cortex to fully develop. It is the area of the brain most associated with executive function, logic, reason, and some anticipation of consequences.
Research estimates that most females' PFC is nearly fully developed by ages 16-21; however, males lag in this development of their PFC by an average of ages 19-24.
Thus, before legal age (18), minors (males > females) are more apt to partake in risk-taking behaviors.

Given the preliminary diagnosis of furious rabies, how should you proceed with the nurse who your patient bit?
Damm [24]
Wash the wound with soap and water. Administer vaccination. If the patient who bit the nurse had furious rabies, the patient was excited and hyperactive. The patient will die in a few days. Human to human transmission through bites is potentially possible, but has never been confirmed, according to the World Health Organization. Still, rabies causes death, so wash the nurse's wound thoroughly for 15  minutes with soap, water, detergent and iodine, administer rabies vaccine and administer immunoglobulin against rabies.

Jane Goodall spent years with the chimpanzees of Gombe. Sitting quietly for hours, she watched the animals closely and took note
Elanso [62]

Jane Goodall was making observations on chimpanzees.

<u>Explanation: </u> 

Jane Goodall spent years with the chimpanzees of Gombe. It all started when she found a chimp who was hungry and wonderfully used a twig of the branch to take the termites of the tree and feed on it. Goodall was fascinating to see a chimp think and behave like a human.

She observed the animal so closely and took note of each behavior. She was so passionate about the chimps that she overcame all the hurdles to find out the redefined mankind.
