In prairie voles, offspring of mothers who had been stressed while they were pregnant were ______ anxious during a forced swim test than offspring from any other treatment group, suggesting that prenatal stress may serve as an “opportunity” factor. In the study we presented in class, we observed differences in behavioral responses and hormonal responses; however, there are many other levels of analysis we could use to study the effects of prenatal stress. Biological psychologists choose the research methods they want to use based on the level of analysis they are most interested in studying, and these methods can differ in their _________, going from the level of the whole brain all the way down to the level of the synapse. If a researcher wanted to know whether prenatal stress altered neurons as early on as at the time of conception, they could study differences in the __________ of developing fetuses because this is the structure that gives rise to all of the neurons in the brain.

Can you please explain in simple terms the methods of this experiment? I'm having difficulty visualizing and understanding what is being done. I have copied and pasted some of the text from the article. Thank you! Abstract : Obesity, high-fat diets, and subsequent type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are associated with cognitive impairment. Moreover, T2DM increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and leads to abnormal elevation of brain beta-amyloid levels, one of the hallmarks of AD. The psychoactive alkaloid caffeine...
