GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Wernicke’s area is the region of the brain, that contains motor neurons involved in the comprehension of speech. The Wernicke’s area lies close to the auditory cortex. This area is important for the comprehension of speech sounds and is considered to be the language comprehension centre.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -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-4: -Wernicke aphasia usually involves the posterior one third of the superior temporal gyrus. If there is involvement of the middle/inferior temporal gyri or the inferior parietal lobule, recovery is unlikely.
