Passage For years, doctors have been puzzled by the condition known as Capgras Delusion, in which a person believes his or her family members and friends have been replaced by impostors. Neurologist V. S. Ramachandran has suggested that Capgras Delusion might be a result of a disconnection between the "fusiform face area," a region of the brain involved in face perception, and the amygdala, which is involved in the emotional responses to familiar faces. Ramachandran hypothesized that, due to the severing of the connection between the face recognition area and the amygdala, Capgras patients just don't feel the leading emotional response they expect to feel upon seeing a family member or friend them to believe that the family member or friend they see must be an impostor. Question What is the primary purpose of this passage?
O To show the importance of family members and friends in people's lives
O To provide new information about the regions of the brain
O To report on a possible explanation for an unusual phenomenon
O To demonstrate the methods scientists use to gather evidence for their hypotheses
