know the four lobes of brain
frontal- emotions, personality, behaviors
parietal- primary center for sensation
TEMPOral- primary center for hearing, taste, or smell (you can hear a TEMPO)
occipital- visual/sight
Wernicke’s area
in the temporal lobe
comprehension of language
(to me, Wernicke’s is the longer and crazier sounding word so I just think, “that
sounds like a crazy word I can’t comprehend it”
broca’s area
in the frontal lobe
speech production
(I remember this by thinking, “this BRO is so drunk he CAn’t even talk properly
(BRO-CA)” this makes sense in two ways because the frontal lobe is personality
AND speaking. Drunk bro can’t speak right.
