Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The lateralization of brain function (or hemispheric dominance/ latralisation) is the tendency for some neural functions or cognitive processes to be specialized to one side of the brain or the other.

Detailed explanation-2: -One half of the cerebrum, the part of the brain that controls muscle functions and also controls speech, thought, emotions, reading, writing, and learning. The right hemisphere controls the muscles on the left side of the body, and the left hemisphere controls the muscles on the right side of the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Introduction. The left and right sides of the brain are specialised to attend to different information, to process sensory inputs in different ways and to control different types of motor behaviour. This is referred to as hemispheric specialization or simply as brain lateralization.

Detailed explanation-4: -There is evidence of some specialization of function-referred to as lateralization-in each hemisphere, mainly regarding differences in language ability.

Detailed explanation-5: -You may have even heard the term “golden brain” used to refer to people who use both sides of their brain equally.
