Specifically, they examined the electrical activity emanating from the somatosensory neocortex (an area that processes sensory information) and the hippocampus, which is a center for learning and memory. The scientists found that oscillations in brain waves from the two regions appear to be intertwined. So-called sleep spindles (bursts of activity from the neocortex) were followed tens of milliseconds later by beats in the hippocampus known as ripples. The team posits that this interplay between the two brain regions is a key step in memory consolidation. A second study, also published online this week by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, links age-associated memory decline to high glucose levels. What is the result of the experiment with rats and mice carried out at Rutgers UniversityA、The electrical activity is emanating from the somatosensory neocortex.第16题【单项选择题】【阅读理解】I have learnt of a plan to build three hundred houses on the land called Parsons Place by the football ground.
