Answer:

c. hippocampus      

Explanation:

The options for this question are missing. The options are:

a. amygdala

b. hypothalamus

c. hippocampus

d. cerebellum

In neurology, the part of our brain that is in charge of transforming short-term memories into long-term memories is the hippocampus. When a person has damage in the hippocampus, the person can experience a loss of the ability to make new memories (because the process of transforming short-term memories into long-term ones is affected) and they can also have loss of memory.  

In this example, Mateo had a stroke and now he is unable to remember the directions that enable him to get to and return from his new doctor's office. We can tell that<u> Mateo goes to the doctor usually and it's a fixed route, however he is experiencing a damage that is affecting the process of transforming short-term memories into long-term ones and thus, he keeps forgetting the route to his doctor's office.</u> Therefore, the brain structure that was potentially damaged (since it's the one in charge of this process) is the hippocampus.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

  • Organic solidarity originates from the reliance that emerges from specialization of work and the complementarities between individuals—an advancement which happens in present day and mechanical social orders.

Where do your beliefs originate?
Lemur [1.5K]

Beliefs form through what we see, hear, perceive, think and feel throughout our lives. In my particular case, some of my beliefs originate in my childhood. These beliefs were inherited from my parents and they inherited from their parents. With that I can say that my first beliefs had origins in my family, with the teachings of what my parents had as true and right.

Over time,  my thoughts and personality have been influenced and impacted by the “outside world,” the world outside my family zone. These impacts and influences eventually transformed some concepts and modified some beliefs that originated in the family environment. With this I can say that some of my beliefs originate in my experiences and what I have heard, seen and absorbed from the world.
