How does exercise affect the physical structures of the brain, and what is the long term value of exercise as we age? How are cognition and emotion affected by exercise?

Based on what you’ve learned, what are three things you think everyone should know about the brain in mid-life, and the role of exercise in our well-being at that stage?

How can physical activity and exercise affect the brain and cognition?
Exercise can also boost memory and thinking indirectly by improving mood and sleep, and by reducing stress and anxiety. Problems in these areas frequently cause or contribute to cognitive impairment.
How does exercise affect the brain long-term?
Exercise improves memory by increasing molecular targets like the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). This molecular factor increases synaptogenesis, forming new synapses that mediate learning and memory, making it easier to absorb information and form long-term memories.

In relation to cognitive psychology and egocentric verus allocentric space, the what (perception) and where (action) pathways are important for visually guided behaviour. Describe why it might be important that these pathways coupled (coordinated) together?

What is an allocentric perspective?
The allocentric reference frame, on the other hand, can be thought of as a third-person perspective. Allocentric navigation utilises external cues or landmarks in relation to each other to navigate and is independent of self (Figure 1B).
What is the difference between allocentric and egocentric?
The egocentric depends on our own position and point of view. The allocentric relies on remembering, recalling, and recognizing environmental stimuli called landmarks.
What is allocentric spatial memory?
Allocentric spatial memory refers specifically to mnemonic representations that capture viewpoint-invariant relations among items, as well as fixed relations between items and the local environment. Historically, the hippocampus has figured prominently in models of allocentric spatial memory.

Please explain the connection between Adolescent development and susceptibility to addiction

Part 1:

Briefly describe the physical development of the brain during Adolescence. Which areas are most significantly impacted and how does their development influence what could be considered “typical” Adolescent behavior?

Part 2:

What is it about the “teenage brain” that might make it more susceptible to addiction and the risk behaviors that are often associated with it?
