d.c., and is watching the seahorses swim with various fish. she begins thinking about the human brain, and remembers that one major structure, which is important in the formation of new memories, gets its name because it is shaped like a sea horse. which brain structure is cardelia thinking about?

Respuesta :

The brain structure that Cardelia is thinking about is HIPPOCAMPUS. Hippocampus is a small organ that is located in the temporal lobe region of the brain. Human beings and other mammals have two hippocampi located at either side of the brain. Hippocampus is associated with long time memory and spatial navigation.
