  3. Broca's area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broca's_area

    Broca's area, or the Broca area (/ ˈ b r oʊ k ə /, [1] [2] [3] also UK: / ˈ b r ɒ k ə /, US: / ˈ b r oʊ k ɑː / [4]), is a region in the frontal lobe of the dominant hemisphere, usually the left, of the brain [5] with functions linked to speech production. Language processing has been linked to Broca's area since Pierre Paul Broca ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_center

    The angular gyrus is represented in orange, the supramarginal gyrus is represented in yellow, Broca's area in blue, Wernicke's area in green, and the primary auditory cortex in pink. In neuroscience and psychology , the term language center refers collectively to the areas of the brain which serve a particular function for speech processing and ...

  5. Prefrontal cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefrontal_cortex

    Many researchers now include BA45 in the prefrontal cortex because together with BA44 it makes up an area of the frontal lobe called Broca's area. [20] Broca's Area is widely considered the output area of the language production pathway in the brain (as opposed to Wernicke's area in the medial temporal lobe, which is seen as the language input ...

  6. Diagonal band of Broca - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagonal_band_of_broca

    The diagonal band of Broca interconnects the amygdala and the septal area. It is one of the olfactory structures. It is situated upon the inferior aspect of the brain. [1] It forms the medial margin of the anterior perforated substance. [2] It was described by the French neuroanatomist Paul Broca. [3]

  7. Arcuate fasciculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcuate_fasciculus

    In neuroanatomy, the arcuate fasciculus (AF; from Latin 'curved bundle') is a bundle of axons that generally connects Broca's area and Wernicke's area in the brain. It is an association fiber tract connecting caudal temporal lobe and inferior frontal lobe .

  8. Brain asymmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_asymmetry

    Broca's area is located in the left hemisphere prefrontal cortex above the cingulate gyrus in the third frontal convolution. [16] Broca's area was discovered by Paul Broca in 1865. This area handles speech production. Damage to this area would result in Broca aphasia which causes the patient to become unable to formulate coherent appropriate ...
