Chapter 14, Problem 27RQ

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The problems associated with the presence of lesions in the Wernicke’s area and Broca’s area.

Introduction:

The Wernicke’s area is responsible for coordinating stimuli for the visual and memory responses in the brain. The formation of lesions in this area will cause lack of coordination in the visual and memory responses. The Broca’s area in the brain regulates the development of language and words during speech.
