Answers to polls...(2)

Hiya!

Sorry I didn't get the answers up earlier, like yesterday....Kept falling asleep.
Anyway, these are the answers to the latest polls.


What is the image of the cursor showing? (That is the little thing on the screen which represents your mouse which you use to click things)

The answer was c) Electrical Stimulation of the Brain
I know it was kind of hard to tell without the 30 numbers on the brain and some of you not being able to see it....But come on!!!! 0% out of 3 people got this question wrong! That means no one got it right!!! Lucky it was (kind of) a novelty poll eh?


Memory of sounds of word is found in __________ of the brain. (from Checkpoints)
The answer was d) Wernicke's area

Which 100% of the 4 people that voted got right! YAY!!!!!!! Congrats to those people.


Pick out the expensive brain research method(s) (that is actually mentioned as expensive in the textbook) You can choose multiple answers.

The answers were : b) CT or CAT, d) PET, e) MRI, f) fMRI

This one was a toughie! Now this one is open to debate, you can discuss it in the FREE TALK section or the SUGGESTIONS section or just email me.
33% of 3 people voted for CT
66% of 3 people voted for PET
66% of 3 people voted for MRI
100% of 3 people voted for fMRI
As for the other possible answers, according to my sources they aren't mentioned as expensive.
But well done to the people that voted and gave it a go! :)
