Question

By studying how quickly rats pressed levers for food pellets before and after surgery that removed parts of their brains, Karl Lashley hoped to discover the precise spot in the brain where learning occurs.
a. True
b. False

Answer 1

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Karl Lashley hoped to discover the precise spot in the brain where learning occurs by studying how rats would act towards a previously  learned process after removing parts of their brains

Karl  Lashley developed the equipotentiality hypothesis through this process. during his study he trained some rats on the correct route in a maze before damaging/removing some parts of their brain. he did this to know if he can be able to remove the precise spot for learning. but the rats still found their way inside the maze.
