Choose two parts of the brain described in Step 1 for this week and discuss how they might be related in function.

Describe an example in your own experience of misattributing a body function to a mental function or misattributing a mental function to a body function. For example, did doing chores as a kid really make you tired?4. Post responses of 75 to 100 words each to two of your fellow class members.
