Answer: The Amygdala

Explanation:

Amygdala, one of the four basal ganglia in the cerebral hemisphere is part of the limbic system which consisting of an almond like -shaped mass of gray matter is located deep in the brain's medial temporal lobe.

The amygdala is involved in the autonomic responses related with fear and hormonal secretions, emotional memory and instinctual behaviour.

For example if we are exposed to a fearful situation, information about that fearful situation is sent to the amygdala immediately, which sends signals to areas of the brain called hypothalamus which then triggers a "fight-or-flight" response in us .

What qualities contribute to a person's positive self-image?
SpyIntel [72]

Well, if you want to have a positive self image you would want to avoid any negativity towards your appearance/personality, and only accept positivity and constructive criticism. I think your answer would be:

<u>Resisting peer pressure.</u><u> Explanation: If you resist peer pressure, then you have confidence in your beliefs and your choices, rather than going along with what people are pressuring you to do. usually those who may not be self-assured and have lower self esteems may be easier to pressure.</u>

<u>Showing self-confidence.</u><u> Explanation: Even though I think that you can put on a face and fake confidence, if you are confident in yourself you're supporting yourself. Therefore, I think this would contribute to a positive self-image.</u>

I don't think that the other two choices would show a positive self-image because:

- If one is disregarding authority, they may not have respect for themselves or the consequences that may come upon themselves. Therefore, it doesn't necessarily mean someone has a positive self-image, since it may very well ruin their life and they may not care about that.

- It's the same logic with limiting self-efficacy. If one is limiting themselves and their success, they may not be confident in their choices/themselves, so they will subconsciously limit their future.

So just to state again, I think the answer is resisting peer pressure and showing self-confidence
