front 1 Name the location/function of Broca's Area | back 1 Frontal lobe (usually left cerebral hemisphere); Directs muscles in involved with speech production |
front 2 Name the location/function of Brodman's Area | back 2 Occipital Cortex; Integrating center for vision |
front 3 ![]() What is the name and function of this area of the cortex? | back 3 Wernicke's Area; Understanding speech |
front 4 What function is the occipital lobe associated with? | back 4 Visual Recognition |
front 5 What function is the temporal lobe associated with? | back 5 Auditory Recognition |
front 6 Where is the primary motor cortex located and what is its function? | back 6 In the precentral gyrus (both hemispheres); Control of precise, voluntary movements |
front 7 Where is the premotor cortex located and what is its function? | back 7 Just anterior to the primary motor cortex; Controls learned motor skills (typing, playing instrument, etc.) |
front 8 Where is the primary somatosensory cortex located and what is its function? | back 8 In the postcentral gyrus; Spatial discrimination (location of body in space) |
front 9 Where is the somatosensory association cortex and what is its function? | back 9 Just posterior to the postcentrsl gyrus; To integrate sensory input (tempature,pressure, etc.) |
front 10 Where is the visual association area? | back 10 Covers most of the occipital lobe |
front 11 Where is the primary auditory cortex? | back 11 Covering most of the temporal lobe |
front 12 Where is the primary olfactory cortex? | back 12 Medial aspect of temporal lobe (called piriform lobe) |
