Requirements
Make sure to answer the following questions on your chart paper
1. Give your zombie cure a name and explain why you chose it
2. Which specific zombie behaviors did you choose to target and what parts of the brain does this behavior stem from?
3. What behaviors do you anticipate your cure causing and stopping?
4. Prescription: I will give you a post it for this
5. What effects to behavior would occur if your cure wears off?
Also…
Include an image of your drug on the chart paper. This can be a representation of the neurotransmitters (skittles) that would be present in your cure in the shape of a pill (I don’t have test tubes…sorry)
Label the parts of the brain that will be impacted by your drug in the color of the neurotransmitter that will have the impact on that location
