Question
Chapter 38.3, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
How do the functions of Broca’s area and Wernicke’s area each relate to the activity of the surrounding cortex.
Introduction:
The outer part of cerebrum is called as cerebral cortex, which is made up of grey matter. The cortex region has mainly two functional areas sensory cortex and motor cortex. The motor area of left portion of cerebral cortex controls the movement of right side of the body and the right portion of the cerebral cortex controls the movement of the left side of the body.

- Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that disrupts neural activities and causes recurrent seizures. About 70% of people with epilepsy can be treated with medication to prevent seizures from occurring. If medication does not work, surgery is an option for some patients. One of the procedures involves cutting the brain so that the seizures cannot be spread to other parts of the brain. A common goal of the surgical procedure to treat epileptic seizures is to reduce the connection between the two hemispheres of the brain. By cutting through this structure, an epileptic seizure occurring on one side of the brain will not be spread to the other side. Identify the structure that connects the two hemispheres of the brain.arrow_forwardHow is it structurallyexplained that the motoractivity of the left side of thebody is controlled by the rightcerebral hemisphere and themotor activity of the right sideof the body is controlled bythe left cerebral hemisphere?arrow_forwardLimbic System, Emotion, Reward, and Addiction List the effects of amygdala lesions at the introduction level (Introduction to Neuroscience College Level).
