The Brodmann area located in pars opercularis is?
A
44
B
45
C
41
D
42
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Brodmann area 44, or BA44, is part of the frontal cortex in the human brain. Situated just anterior to premotor cortex (BA6) and on the lateral surface, inferior to BA9.

Detailed explanation-2: -Broca’s aphasia, which many people refer to as “expressive” aphasia, is regularly associated with a middle cerebral artery stroke affecting the third frontal convolution of the frontal lobe (classical Broca’s area, Brodmann’s areas 44 and 47)1, 18, 19, 32 and extending into the white matter (the internal capsule).

Detailed explanation-3: -Area 44 lies on the pars opercu-laris and area 45 on the pars triangularis of the inferior frontal gyrus (e.g., Amunts et al., 1999, 2010; Petrides and Pandya, 1994, 2002). On the pars orbitalis of the inferior frontal gyrus lies area 47/12.
