Cerebral Cortex

Which Lobe?

• Frontal
• Parietal
• Temporal
• Occipital

Which Lobe?

• Frontal
• Parietal
• Temporal
• Occipital

Makes decisions, plans for the future, reasons, and carries out behaviors

• Frontal Lobe

• Parietal Lobe

• Occipital Lobe

• Temporal Lobe

The corpus callosum

• Manages our understanding of speech and language
• cannot process messages sent from the left hand
• is a deep fissure in the cerebral cortex
• is a thick band of nerve fibres linking the two hemispheres of the brain

Responsible for the interpretation of language/speech. 

• Broca's Area
• Werkicke's Area
• Premotor Area
• Visual Cortex

If a person has difficulty producing speech due to a stroke they will most likely be diagnosed with

• Broca's Aphasia

• Wernicke's Aphasia

• Visual Agnosia

• Neglect Syndrome

Which lobe?

• Frontal

• Parietal

• Temporal

• Occipital

The frontal lobe of the cerebral cortex is associated with:

• helping us find our position in space
• receiving information from bodily sensations
• higher-order functions such as planning, reasoning and problem-solving
• processing auditory information

Which of the following statements is true about language processing in the brain?

• Broca's area in the left frontal lobe is involved in the production of articulate speech
• The right hemisphere is where all major language functions are located
• The comprehension of speech is a function of Wernicke's area in the left frontal lobe
• Damage to Wernicke's area does not cause any speech difficulties

The parietal lobe contains the 

• motor cortex
• somatosensory cortex
• Broca's area
• Wernicke's area
