wobble. Flexibility in the base-pairing rules in which the nucleotide at the 5' end of a tRNA anticodon can form hydrogen bonds with more than one kind of base in the third position (3' end) of a codon.
The conclusion that the amygdala is the brainâs fear center wrongly assumes that the feelings of âfearâ and the responses elicited by threats are products of the same brain system.

The âstress hormoneâ cortisol is believed to create a domino effect that hard-wires pathways between the hippocampus and amygdala in a way that might create a vicious cycle by creating a brain that becomes predisposed to be in a constant state of fight-or-flight.he gray matter of the brain is densely packed with nerve cell bodies and is responsible for the brain's higher functions, such as thinking, computing, and decision-making. But gray matter is only half of the brain matter inside our headsâthe other half of brain volume is called white matter.
