AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Each hemisphere is in charge of the opposite side of the body, so your right brain controls your left hand. The right hemisphere also takes in sensory input from your left side and vice versa. The brain is segmented into regions called lobes.

Detailed explanation-2: -The hemispheres communicate with each other through the corpus callosum which is a bundle of fibers between the hemispheres. Each hemisphere controls muscles and glands on the opposite side of the body (i.e. the right side of the brain or hemisphere controls the left side of the body.)

Detailed explanation-3: -Different parts of the cerebrum move different body parts. The left side of the brain controls the movements of the right side of the body, and the right side of the brain controls the movements of the left side of the body.

Detailed explanation-4: -In most people, language skills are in the left side of the brain. The right side controls attention, memory, reasoning, and problem solving.
