If James has severely damaged his brain’s amygdala, the most likely effect would be that he won’t be able to experience fear. The amygdala is a key region in the brain involved in processing emotions, particularly fear and threat responses. Damage to this area can significantly impair the ability to feel fear and respond appropriately to dangerous situations. The other options listed (losing weight, moving arms, or hearing) are associated with different brain regions and functions.
