Question

The patient known as S.M. has a lesion on this structure resulting (20[1])from (0[1])Urbach–Wiethe ("UR-bock VEE-tuh") disease. (0[1])James McGaugh's research suggests that this structure's basolateral (0[1])region plays a large role (0[1])in memory (20[1])consolidation. (0[3])This structure coordinates more strongly with the nuclear accumbens after classical (0[1])conditioning. (0[1])The olfactory (20[1])bulb (0[1])directly connects (20[1])to this structure, (0[2])which sits (0[1])atop the hippocampus. (20[4]0[1])This (20[1])part of the (*) temporal lobe is a key component of the limbic system. This (10[1])structure signals the hypothalamus (0[1])to trigger the (0[1])fight-or-flight (10[2])response, (10[6]0[2])and (0[1])stimulation (10[2])of this structure (10[1])may increase aggression. (10[1])For 10 points, name this almond-shaped brain structure known for regulating emotions (10[1])like fear. (10[2])■END■ (10[13]0[3])
