(b)-Jordan will have stronger connections between the striatum and PFC while Taylor will have stronger connections between the striatum, amygdala, and hippocampus.
(c)-Jordan will have stronger connections between the Pons and PFC while Taylor will have stronger connections between the striatum, amygdala, and subgenual PFC.

Answer:

(b)-Jordan will have stronger connections between the striatum and PFC while Taylor will have stronger connections between the striatum, amygdala, and hippocampus.

Explanation:

Striatum : Another name of striatum is neostriatum. It is a group of neurons located in the forebrain. It is necessary and responsible for voluntary motor control.

PFC : It stands for prefrontal corte. It is located at the frontal lobe of the brain. It affects and controls the personality development of an individual. It is also responsible for complex behaviors of a person.

Amygdala : Amygdala is a part of the brain that is responsible for the memory, survival instincts and emotions of a person.

Hippocampus : Hippocampus is a part of the limbic system of the brain that is responsible for the short and long term memory and spatial memories which helps in navigation.

Thus Taylor who likes to go out, meet people and try out and experience new things will ahve a strong connections between the hippocampus, striatum and the amygdala. Whereas Jordan, who likes to stay at home will have connections between the striatum and prefrontal corte or PFC.

Thus the answer is

(b)-Jordan will have stronger connections between the striatum and PFC while Taylor will have stronger connections between the striatum, amygdala, and hippocampus.
