WERNICKE'S AREA Located towards the rear of the temporal lobe In left hemisphere only (next to primary auditory cortex) and connected to Broca's area
{"Image DocumentName": "WERNICKE\u2019S AREA Located towards the rear of the temporal lobe", "Image ImageDescription": "In left hemisphere only (next to primary auditory cortex) and connected to Broca\u2019s area by a bundle of nerves. Has crucial role in comprehension of speech, but is also involved in speech production, more specifically, interpreting the sounds of human speech. Word is heard, then the auditory sensation is processed by the primary auditory cortex of the left temporal lobe, but the word cannot be understood until the information has been processed by Wernicke\u2019s area.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
