Procedural memory
________ requires processing by basal ganglia and cerebellum.
LTP

amygdala
The ________ plays an important role in the emotional aspect of memory.
left temporal lobe
Damage to the ________ can produce fluent aphasia.
speech output
In Wernicke's aphasia, ________ _______ is of normal fluency and speed but is riddled with errors in sound and word selection.
Declarative
________ /explicit memory: the ability to learn and consciously remember facts and events.
left posterior temporal lobe
The ________ has a sensory- motor circuit that may help with systems for speech recognition and production to communicate.
prefrontal cortex
The ________ interacts with a network of posterior cortical areas that encode, maintain, and retrieve types of information & where important events happened & more.
Memory
________ involves a persistent change in synapses.
medial temporal lobe area
The ________ serves a critical role in the initial processing and storage of these memories.
cAMP

multiple memory
The brain has ________ systems supported by different brain regions.
CAMP response element
________ binding protein (CREB): activates genes that direct protein synthesis.
Brocas aphasia

anterior temporal lobe
The ________ may be a participant in sentence-level comprehension.
FOXP2
The _______ gene codes for a protein that switches genes on and off in the brain.
prefrontal cortex support
Areas in the ________ executive functions like selection, rehearsal, and monitoring of information retrieved from long- term memory.
nonfluent aphasias
Damage to the left frontal lobe can produce _________ ________.
Memory
________ is stored in distributed collections of cortical processing systems also involved in perception, processing, and analysis of learned material.
prefrontal cortex
Working memory depends on the ________ & other cerebral cortical areas.

Non-declarative/Implicit/Procedural memory
The knowledge of how to do something.
Long-term potentiation (LTP)
A long-lasting increase in strength of synaptic response following stimulation.
cAMP response element binding protein (CREB)
A protein that activates genes that direct protein synthesis.
Neurotrophins
Molecules that lead to growth in synapse and an increase in responsiveness when stimulated.
Aphasia

Nonfluent aphasia
Aphasias where the individual loses the ability to produce speech or experiences great difficulty in producing speech.
Brocas aphasia
a syndrome in which
Fluent aphasia
Aphasias where the individual can still produce speech but that speech lacks any intelligible meaning.
Word deafness
The inability to comprehend speech on any level.
