  2. Neurobiological effects of physical exercise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurobiological_effects_of...

    Neuroplasticity is the process by which neurons adapt to a disturbance over time, and most often occurs in response to repeated exposure to stimuli. [27] Aerobic exercise increases the production of neurotrophic factors [note 1] (e.g., BDNF, IGF-1, VEGF) which mediate improvements in cognitive functions and various forms of memory by promoting blood vessel formation in the brain, adult ...

  3. Lordosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lordosis

    Because all muscles have a muscle that works in opposition to it. It is imperative that to keep all muscles protected, the opposite muscle is not stronger than the muscle at risk. In the situation of lumbar lordosis, abdominal muscles are weaker than the muscles in the lumbar spine and the hamstring muscles. The muscular imbalance results in ...

  4. Memory disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_disorder

    The most common symptoms include: tremors, slowness, stiffness, impaired balance, rigidity of the muscles, and fatigue. As the disease progresses, non-motor symptoms may also appear, such as depression, difficulty swallowing, sexual problems or cognitive changes. [22] Another symptom associated with PD is memory dysfunction.

  5. Lordosis behavior - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lordosis_behavior

    Lordosis behavior (/ l ɔːr ˈ d oʊ s ɪ s / [1]), also known as mammalian lordosis (Greek lordōsis, from lordos "bent backward" [1]) or presenting, is the naturally occurring body posture for sexual receptivity to copulation present in females of most mammals including rodents, elephants, cats, and humans.

  6. Engram (neuropsychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engram_(neuropsychology)

    Neuroscience acknowledges the existence of many types of memory and their physical location within the brain is likely to be dependent on the respective system mediating the encoding of this memory. [9] Such brain parts as the cerebellum, striatum, cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and amygdala are thought

  7. Neuroanatomy of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroanatomy_of_memory

    The hippocampus is a structure in the brain that has been associated with various memory functions. It is part of the limbic system, and lies next to the medial temporal lobe. It is made up of two structures, the Ammon's Horn, and the Dentate gyrus, each containing different types of cells. [1]

  8. Muscle memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_memory

    Muscle memory is a form of procedural memory that involves consolidating a specific motor task into memory through repetition, which has been used synonymously with motor learning. When a movement is repeated over time, the brain creates a long-term muscle memory for that task, eventually allowing it to be performed with little to no conscious ...

  9. Muscle memory (strength training) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_memory_(strength...

    Muscle memory is probably related to the cell nuclei residing inside the muscle fibers. [citation needed] The muscle cells are the largest cells in the body with a volume thousands of times larger than most other body cells. [4] To support this large volume, the muscle cells are one of the very few in the mammalian body that contain several ...
