  • Q4
    Physical factors involved in hunger would include
    stomach contractions, low blood sugar levels, ventromedial hypothalamus, and hormones leptin and obestatin
    stomach contractions, low blood sugar levels, lateral hypothalamus, and hormones orexin and ghrelin
    stomach contractions, high blood sugar levels, lateral hypothalamus, and hormones PYY and obestatin
    stomach contractions, high blood sugar levels, ventromedial hypothalamus and hormones PYY, and leptin

  • Q5
    Set point theory on weight suggests
    is the same thing as settling point theory
    our weight is completely determined by our genetic make-up and trying to change our set point is futile
    we should always be striving for a weight 5% less than where we normally are in an attempt to keep us from becoming overweight
    we have a "weight thermostat" set at a particular weight that our body works to maintain.

    the autonomic arousal of varied emotions is the same for all emotions

    there is some tendency for negative emotions to be linked to the right hemisphere and positive emotions to be linked to left hemisphere

    the easier a task is, the better someone will be motivated to perform it
