Scientific information refers to the classification, collection, dissemination, and retrieval of recorded knowledge treated both as a pure and as an applied science. The two features of a scientific information source, which may suggest that the information is not reliable are:  

1. The information is based on data that are not peer-reviewed, that is, the information has not been reviewed by the experts in the field, or is not encouraged by an accord of experts in the field.  

2. The references are not cited, that is, it not clear or not known that from where the information originated.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

The options

A)hippocampus

B)basal ganglia

C)hypothalamus

D)cerebellum

The CORRECT ANSWER IS D)

D)cerebellum

Explanation:

Apart from the coordinating process, the cerebellum is involved in motor learning, emotional behavior, and fear memory.

Fear learning is widely shown in the variation of autonomic and somatic responses, as in heart rate and freezing, promoted by a neutral stimulus which could have been formally grouped with a painful one.

Variation or changes of the vermis influences these responses, and its reversible inactivation in the period of consolidation which is seen to impair fear memory.

The neural correlate of cerebellar activities in fear consolidation is shown by a behaviorally promoted long-term rise of synaptic effectiveness and efficiencies among parallel fibers and a Purkinje cell.

Likely synaptic variations after fear conditioning are well fully observed in the amygdala and hippocampus, suggesting an interplay among emotional circumstances of scenario and the different variations in neural process.

Furthermore, in hotfoot mice, that shows a basic lack of parallel fiber to Purkinje cell synapse, short- and long-term fear memories are influenced.

All these data gives a foundational background on the concept that the cerebellum is majorly involved in fear learning.

The functional interplay of the vermis with hypothalamus, amygdala, and hippocampus do infer to a more complex activities of the cerebellum as a form of an united network that basically influences emotional behavior.
