Before the advent of modern imaging techniques, scientists and clinicians relied on autopsies of people who suffered brain injury with resultant change in behavior to determine how different areas of the brain were affected.

Before the advent of modern imaging techniques, scientists and clinicians relied on autopsies of people who suffered brain injury with resultant change in behavior to determine how different areas of the brain were affected. Reread the case of Phineas Gage and the descriptions of the four lobes in module 3.4. In a minimum of 200 words, describe where each lobe is located and their function. Then describe how Gage’s behavior could have changed with the damage of each of the lobes separately.
Every behavior begins with biology. Think of a stressful event and how your body responded. In a minimum of 200 words, describe a fight or flight situation that happened in your life and the role of your autonomic nervous system, before and after the event. Explain why our bodies have two responses to stressful events. Finally, explain the evolutionary process of fight or flight by comparing and contrasting stressors experienced by our ancestors relative to the stressors we experience today.
