Brain
Hieroglyphics
Can you decode the Brain Hieroglyphics? Read out the images in these ancient puzzles to form a neuroscience word or phrase.
Bee + Rain = Brain
Your brain is a complex body part that sits in your head. It is the body's command center.
Axe + On = Axon
Every neuron has an axon. The axon carries electrical signals away from the cell body and towards other neurons or receptors.
= Doctor In the House
Neuroscience offers many exciting job opportunities. For example, becoming a neurosurgeon and neurologist are amazing careers for those who love neuroscience and helping others. With so many exciting opportunities in the world of neuroscience whichever path you take you can change the world!
New + Row + Sign + Ants = Neuroscience
Neuroscience is the study of the brain and nervous system. The brain and nervous system are a part of our body. Everything you do and all your 5 senses are controlled by them.
Re + Flex = Reflex
A reflex is a fast automatic reaction in response to something. Many reflexes are made possible by mainly receptors, neurons, and the spinal cord.
Ear + Drum = Eardrum
The eardrum lies in between the outer and inner ear. The eardrum vibrates when sound waves hit it, which begins a process that converts sound waves to nerve signals that go to the brain.
The word matter is white = White Matter
Grey Matter is also a correct answer.
When the brain is analyzed white and grey areas can be seen. Grey matter is composed of neuron's cell bodies, while white matter is made up of axons.
Hippo + Camp + Us = Hippocampus
The hippocampus is a structure in the brain's temporal lobe. It plays a major role in memory and learning.
Core + Text = Cortex
Eye on Channel = Ion Channel
Materials that can not cross the cell membrane use specialized “doors.” These “doors” are called transport proteins. The Ion channel is a category of transport proteins. It allows positive or negative molecules to cross the cell membrane.
Cog + Nation = Cognition
