Dopamine-releasing neurons in the substantia nigra die off progressively over years. Which disorder does that loss produce?
A blood clot blocks a cerebral artery, depriving downstream neurons of oxygen and glucose. Which disorder has occurred?
A vessel in the brain ruptures, and bleeding compresses nearby nervous tissue. Which disorder is this?
Immune cells attack myelin around axons in the brain and spinal cord, leaving scarred patches. Which disorder fits this damage?
Motor-control areas of the developing brain are injured before, during, or soon after birth. Which condition can result?
Rapid acceleration makes the brain strike the inside of the skull without penetrating injury. Which disorder can this produce?
Groups of cortical neurons repeatedly fire sudden, synchronized bursts of action potentials with no provoking cause. Which disorder is most directly produced?
An adult suddenly has slurred speech, one-sided facial drooping, and weakness in the right arm within minutes. What has most likely happened?
A patient develops a resting tremor, slowed movement, rigid muscles, and a shuffling gait over several years. Which disorder do these signs point to?
A teenager has repeated brief episodes of altered awareness with uncontrolled muscle jerks caused by abnormal brain electrical activity. Which disorder fits?
A patient has episodes of blurred vision, numbness, and weakness at different times as scarred patches form in CNS myelin. Which disorder is most likely?
A child has spastic limbs and poor muscle coordination from an early, nonprogressive injury to movement-control regions. Which condition is described?
After a hard blow to the head, a student has headache, confusion, and brief memory loss. Which disorder best matches those signs?
An older adult gradually loses memory and becomes confused as neurons in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus degenerate. Which disorder fits?
Myelin is lost from axons in the brain and spinal cord. What follows for signal conduction along those axons?
Dopamine output from the substantia nigra to motor circuits declines. What motor effect is expected?
An artery supplying the left primary motor cortex is blocked. Which deficit would most likely follow?
Abnormal synchronized firing spreads through cortical neurons. What can happen next?
Blood flow to a brain region stops long enough to cause ischemia. What follows for the tissue supplied by that vessel?
A brain injury around the time of birth damages the motor cortex and its pathways. What long-term effect is most likely?
