(8) In healthy subjects, in a state of relative rest, with different individual profiles of asymmetry (20 right-handed and 10 left-handed subjects), a greater conjunction of electrical brain processes (estimated by mean EEG coherence levels) has been found in the dominant hemisphere as compared to the subdominant one, more distinctly expressed in the right-handed subjects.
(9) We compared resting conditions after a special relaxation procedure with three music perception tasks: (1) a standardised rumba rhythm generated by a keyboard and delivered binaurally by earphones, (2) the same as an arpeggio in D major, and (3) the same as an arpeggio with a tonic-subdominant-dominant cadence.
(10) The report contains some results of an experimental psychological study of memory in 144 patients with lesions of the right and left temporal lobes and in 25 patients with parkinsonism, who had undergone stereotaxic operations on the nuclear structures of the thalamus for dominant and subdominant speech of the brain hemisphere.

(18) A distinct decrease of NA concentration in the brain produced an increase of intermale aggression and elevation of plasma testosterone level in dominant mice, whereas brain NA alteration did not change testosterone level in the blood and decreased aggressiveness in subdominant animals.
(19) Depending on the level of excitation in the dominant focus, the subdominant focus may be both in inhibitory state (no blinking in response to the subdominant stimulus) and in a state of enhanced excitation (the reflex to its proper stimulus increases).
(20) The barrier flora, consisting of groups of anaerobes, either prevent the implantation of exogenous microorganisms (drastic barrier) or limit it to the subdominant flora (permissive barrier).
