Bus Crash! |
|

Mr. Reints decided to hold a Saturday
review session to help his fabulous Psychology students study for their exam.
Such a large number of dedicated students chose to attend that he decided to
charter a bus to drive them to Pizza Ranch. (Then they could also use
the time on the bus to study with classmates.) On the way home from a
wonderful review, tragically, their bus was hit by a bus full of Mrs.
Bosse's reviewing Biology II students. Fortunately, everyone survived
the horrible crash, but many students were injured.
Using the description of each person’s behavioral symptoms, determine the probable location of their brain damage and then explain the function of that area of the brain.
