*Functionalism formed as a reaction to the theories of the structuralist school of thought and was heavily influenced by the work of William James. Major functionalist thinkers included John Dewey and Harvey Carr. Instead of focusing on the mental processes themselves, functionalist thinkers were instead interested in the role that these processes play. *Behaviorism Behaviorism became a dominant school of thought during the 1950s. It was based upon the work of thinkers such as: John B. Watson Ivan Pavlov B. F. Skinner

Biology B3 B3.1 Exchange of materials 1.1 Osmosis Osmosis is the net movement of water particles from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration across a partially permeable membrane (e.g. a cell membrane) It?s random and re quires no energy 1.2 Active transport Cells may need to absorb substances which are in short supply, i.e. against the concentration gradient. To do this they use active transport to absorb substances across partially permeable membranes Active transport requires the use of energy released in respiration Cells are able to absorb ions from dilute solutions. For example, root cells absorb mineral ions from the dilute solutions in the soil by active transport Glucose can be reabsorbed in the kidney tubules by active transport

Emily Johnson Period 2 2/4/13 AP Psychology Outline Chapter 10: Motivation & Emotion Motivational Theories & Concepts Motivation ? Involves Goal-Directed Behavior Drive Theories Homeostasis ? A State of Physiological Equilibrium or Stability. Drive ? An Internal State of Tension that Motivates an Organism to Engage in Activities that should reduce this Tension. When you Experience Discomfort, An Internal Drive motivates you to Establish Homeostasis again. Drive Theories Don?t Explain All Motivation. Incentive Theory Incentive ? An External Goal that has the Capacity to Motivate Behavior. Incentive Theory revolves around External Stimuli, Not Internal like Drive Theory. Evolutionary Theory Motivation comes from Natural Selection.

Cardiovascular Vocabulary Diastolic Pressure - the blood pressure (as measured by a sphygmomanometer) after the contraction of the heart while the chambers of the heart refill with blood. Arteriole - A small branch of an artery leading into capillaries. Cardiac Output - the amount of blood pumped out by the ventricles in a given period of time. Atrioventricular valve - either of two heart valves through which blood flows from the atria to the ventricles; prevents return of blood to the atrium. Bicuspid Valve - valve with two cusps; situated between the left atrium and the left ventricle. Systolic Pressure - the blood pressure (as measured by a sphygmomanometer) during the contraction of the left ventricle of the heart.

Chapter 13 - Cardiovascular SystemPRIVATE ? 13.1 Introduction (p. 329; Fig. 13.1) A. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, and vessels, arteries, capillaries and veins. B. A functional cardiovascular system is vital for supplying oxygen and nutrients to tissues and removing wastes from them. 13.2 Structure of the Heart (p. 329; Fig. 13.2) A. The heart is a hollow, cone-shaped, muscular pump within the thoracic cavity. B. Size and Location of the Heart (p. 329) 1. The average adult heart is 14 cm long and 9 cm wide. 2. The heart lies in the mediastinum under the sternum; its apex extends to the fifth intercostal space. C. Coverings of the Heart (p. 329; Fig. 13.3) 1. The pericardium encloses the heart.

The Cerebrum Information processing centered in cerebrum Structure Telencephalon gives rise to cerebrum Divided into right and left cerebral hemispheres ? outer covering of gray matter Cerebral cortex, internal white matter, and groups of neurons (basal nuclei) located deep within white matter ? important for planning and learning movement sequences Damage- cerebral palsy Cerebral cortex (largest/most complex) ? sensory information analyzed Right/left hemispheres ? right side responsible for left side of body; left side responsible for right side of body Corpus callosum (thick band of axons) allows communication between right and left cerebral cortex Damage to cerebrum early in development- Normal functions radiated elsewhere
