Hippocampus is responsible for the formation of long-term memories, by participating in the consolidation of short-term to long-term memory. It also plays a very important role in spatial memory and orientation.
The task that this experienced cab-driver is asked to perform is related to spatial navigation and orientation abilities. The right hippocampus has been shown to participate in the formation of memory for locations in specific environments, while the left hippocampus has been shown to be involved in autobiographical and episodic memory. As a result, the PET scan will show an increased activity of the right hippocampus.

However, the rest of the statements are true. It is true that fish eat predators, and that they also eat seaweed and kelp that could smother the coral. Finally, it is also true that some fish live symbiotically with coral, luring prey for the coral to kill and eat.

Which microscope is used to observe a specimen that emits light when illuminated with an ultraviolet light?
jonny [76]

Answer: Fluorescence microscope

Explanation:

The basic function of a fluorescence microscope is to irradiate the specimen with a desired and specific band of wavelengths. A fluorescence microscope uses a mercury or xenon lamp to produce ultraviolet light. The light comes into the microscope and hits a dichroic mirror. The dichroic mirror reflects the ultraviolet light up to the specimen. The ultraviolet light excites fluorescence within molecules in the specimen. The objective lens collects the fluorescent-wavelength light produced. This fluorescent light passes through the dichroic mirror and a barrier filter, making it to the eyepiece to form the image.
