Question

jerry has had an issue with being overweight for a long time. he has a large appetite and never seems to feel full after eating as people typically experience. which part of the brain could be causing him to feel hungry continuously and not have a feeling of fullness?
o hypothalamus
o amygdala
o hippocampus
o pineal gland

Explanation:

The hypothalamus is responsible for regulating hunger and satiety. It contains centers that control feelings of hunger (lateral hypothalamus) and fullness (ventromedial hypothalamus). The amygdala is involved in emotions like fear and aggression. The hippocampus is crucial for memory formation. The pineal gland regulates sleep - wake cycles through melatonin production. Since Jerry has issues with hunger and fullness, the hypothalamus is the relevant brain part.

hypothalamus
