AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Broca’s area in the human prefrontal cortex and Wernicke’s area in the human temporal lobe are the two most well-known cortical areas involved in the production and comprehension of speech.

Detailed explanation-2: -Wernicke’s area is a critical language area in the posterior superior temporal lobe connects to Broca’s area via a neural pathway.

Detailed explanation-3: -The auditory cortex is the part of the temporal lobe that processes auditory information in humans and many other vertebrates.

Detailed explanation-4: -Wernicke area, region of the brain that contains motor neurons involved in the comprehension of speech. This area was first described in 1874 by German neurologist Carl Wernicke. The Wernicke area is located in the posterior third of the upper temporal convolution of the left hemisphere of the brain.

Detailed explanation-5: -The primary auditory cortex (A1) is located on the superior temporal gyrus in the temporal lobe and receives point-to-point input from the ventral division of the medial geniculate complex; thus, it contains a precise tonotopic map.
