LEARNING DISABILITIES

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Research shows neurological differences in the brain of people with Learning Disabilities
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Federal law states that a learning disability (LD) is a permanent neurological disorder that may be subtle to severe. It limits the brain’s ability to store, process, and produce information and affects a person’s ability to speak, listen, read, write, or do math.

Detailed explanation-2: -A new study suggests that poor connectivity between brain “hubs”-not the regions themselves-is much more strongly related to learning difficulties. Children with poor connectivity between the “hubs” in their brains are more likely to have learning difficulties, according to a new University of Cambridge study.

Detailed explanation-3: -Certain regions of the brain also reach peak maturation earlier than normal in those with dyslexia, including the posterior corpus callosum and the temporoparietal region of the left hemisphere (which is part of the reading network) and right hemisphere (which makes up the attentional networks) (11).

Detailed explanation-4: -Now that scientists have established that people with dyslexia have a glitchin their neurological wiring that makes reading extremely difficult for them, they are actively searching for a deeper understanding of how that wiringbecomes disrupted.
