Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
This area of the brain is responsible for the formation of language/speech.
A
Broca’s area
B
Wernicke’s area
C
Association area of the parietal lobe
D
Primary visual cortex
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Broca’s area, located in the left hemisphere, is associated with speech production and articulation. Our ability to articulate ideas, as well as use words accurately in spoken and written language, has been attributed to this crucial area.

Detailed explanation-2: -In general, the left hemisphere or side of the brain is responsible for language and speech. Because of this, it has been called the “dominant” hemisphere. The right hemisphere plays a large part in interpreting visual information and spatial processing.

Detailed explanation-3: -Broca’s area is a key component of a complex speech network, interacting with the flow of sensory information from the temporal cortex, devising a plan for speaking and passing that plan along to the motor cortex, which controls the movements of the mouth.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.

Detailed explanation-5: -Broca’s area, or the Broca area (/ˈbroʊkə/, also UK: /ˈbrɒkə/, US: /ˈbroʊkɑː/), is a region in the frontal lobe of the dominant hemisphere, usually the left, of the brain with functions linked to speech production.
