Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As people age, there is a decrease in amygdala activation. Therefore, older adults would have lower amygdala activation compared to younger adults. This is similar to the relationship between children and younger adults, but the specific age ranges are not specified. Adolescents have been found to have higher amygdala activation compared to adults, so option C is not accurate. Option D is also not accurate, as "very" old adults would likely still have lower amygdala activation compared to older adults, and there is no clear age range specified for "very" old adults.
