Jan 15, 2016 · Scientists believe that emotions arose in higher organisms because they helped them survive. Problems with biological systems that regulate the emotions often have precisely the opposite effect: having major depression or chronic, acute anxiety makes daily survival that much more difficult.

Since emotions are evolutionarily evolved products of brain function, it may reveal crucial to investigate how emotion states are implemented across diverse species, wherever possible including classical and non-typical model organisms . Only this approach may allow us to extract universal principles of emotions and their neuronal basis and distinguish them from mechanistic details in specific ...
Jan 18, 2013 · Abstract. Feelings are mental experiences of body states. They signify physiological need (for example, hunger), tissue injury (for example, pain), optimal function (for example, well-being ...

Aug 23, 2024 · Solms suggests that emotions arise from the brain's predictions about the body's internal state, aimed at maintaining homeostasis. For example, hunger represents a prediction that the body needs ...
Jan 3, 2024 · 1. Brain Activity: Emotions are predominantly a result of brain activity. Different parts of the brain, such as the amygdala, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex, play a significant role in generating and regulating emotions. 2. Neurotransmitters: Chemical messengers in the brain, called neurotransmitters, are responsible for transmitting ...

Abstract. Basic tendencies to detect and respond to significant events are present in the simplest single cell organisms, and persist throughout all invertebrates and vertebrates. Within vertebrates, the overall brain plan is highly conserved, though differences in size and complexity also exist. The forebrain differs the most between mammals ...
