Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The brain is divided into symmetrical left and right hemispheres. Each hemisphere is in charge of the opposite side of the body, so your right brain controls your left hand. The right hemisphere also takes in sensory input from your left side and vice versa.
Detailed explanation-2: -The hemispheres communicate with each other through the corpus callosum which is a bundle of fibers between the hemispheres.
