Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Wernicke’s area is primarily involved in the comprehension. Historically, this area has been associated with language processing, whether it is written or spoken. The angular gyrus allows us to associate multiple types of language-related information whether auditory, visual or sensory.
Detailed explanation-2: -Damage to the temporal lobe of the brain may result in Wernicke’s aphasia (see figure), the most common type of fluent aphasia. People with Wernicke’s aphasia may speak in long, complete sentences that have no meaning, adding unnecessary words and even creating made-up words.
