What brain area helps with languag? It is located in the left temporal lobe?
A
Broca’s Area
B
Wernicke’s Area
C
Aphasia Area
D
Cochlear Area
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Wernicke’s area is a critical language area in the posterior superior temporal lobe connects to Broca’s area via a neural pathway. Wernicke’s area is primarily involved in the comprehension. Historically, this area has been associated with language processing, whether it is written or spoken.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Wernicke area is located in the posterior third of the upper temporal convolution of the left hemisphere of the brain.

Detailed explanation-3: -“Wernicke’s area, located in the left temporal lobe, “ was identified by Carl Wernicke in 1874 as the locus of damage of an aphasic syndrome characterized by impairment in language comprehension and production.

Detailed explanation-4: -The brain region known as the Wernicke area, shown in blue, supports a critical component of speech production, referred to as phonologic retrieval, in which the phonemes to be articulated, and their temporal order, are represented mentally.

Detailed explanation-5: -Broca’s and Wernicke’s areas are cortical areas specialized for production and comprehension, respectively, of human language. Broca’s area is found in the left inferior frontal gyrus and Wernicke’s area is located in the left posterior superior temporal gyrus.
