Summary Introduction
To determine:
The specific area of the brain that may be impaired if a person cannot tell the difference between a smooth and a rough surface using the hands only.
Introduction:
The cerebrum association area controls the sensory information by recognizing its identity, comparing it to the memories of the past and then formulating a proper response. These areas include the auditory association area, functional brain region, visual association area, somatosensory association area, and premotor cortex.
