Electroencephalograph (EEG) is a tool used for gauging and recording brain waves. In 1929, Hans Berger, the German psychiatrist, published the results of his experiments using the electroecenphalograph in recording human brain waves.

5. Four major brain waves exist: alpha has a frequency that ranges from 8 to 14 6. cycles per second (cps) and is found in the occipital part of the brain. Beta 7. covers 14 to 30 cps. Delta wave includes frequencies that are below 5 cps. Theta 8. wave covers the range between 5 and 8 cps. Alpha waves are more active 9. during relaxation and light sleep. Nonetheless, their function is altered by deep 10. mental activities. Beta waves, on the other hand, appear during mental 11. concentration periods. 12. In 1935, the findings of collaborators Frederic Gibbs, William Lennox, and 13. Hallowelle Davis from Harvard on the use of EEG in epilepsy was published. 14. Since EEG poses no pain or side effects, it is broadly included as a medium for 15. identifying brain irregularities. The EEG is instrumental in discovering a host 16. of brain wave abnormalities. Persons who suffer from grand mal epilepsy have 17. brain wave patterns that resemble spikes, while those with petit mal epilepsy 18. have arch-shaped brain waves. Brain waves respond to physiological and 19. chemical stimuli. For instance, the use of drugs will result in low-amplitude, 20. high frequency brain waves. When we are asleep, the waves' pattern changes a 21. few times. Dreaming frequently happens when the brain waves have high 22. frequency but low amplitude.

According to the passage which of the following brain waves has the highest frequency range? Theta waves Alpha waves Delta waves Beta waves According to the passage, Beta waves are active during which of the following? Sleeping Mental concentration Dreaming Relaxation

Explanation of Answer: The answer to this question is directly stated in lines 10-11, therefore B is the correct answer. Theta waves cover the range between 8-14 cps 14-30 cps 1-5cps 5-8 cps How are the brain waves of a patient with grandmal epilepsy different from that of a healthy person? They look like domes. They resemble spikes. There is no significant difference between the two. They do not change during sleep.
