Question
Chapter 49.3, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: The functions of Broca’s area and Wernicke’s area in relation to the activity of the surrounding cortex.
Concept introduction:
Broca’s area is present at the lower back of the frontal lobe and Wernicke’s area is present at the junction of the frontal and temporal lobes. Both are present at the left hemisphere of the brain.
