Since there are two cerebral hemispheres, and also two hands (in a normal person) it works out very neatly; each side of the brain controls one hand. The left cerebral hemisphere controls the right hand, and the right cerebral hemisphere controls the left hand.
Hemisphere dominance of the brain is not fixed but rather a selected preference for each individual. A generalization is that left brain dominant people are more logical while right brain dominant people are more creative.
Cerebrum
The left side of the brain (or the left hemisphere) has many functions. Two of these are: 1) Processing of information - the left side of the brain takes small bits of information then orders and processes them to get the whole picture and form conclusions. (In contrast, the right side of the brain will look at the whole picture first and then break it down). 2) Processing of symbols and numbers - People who have a more dominant left side of the brain are usually able to solve maths and logic problems more easily than people with a dominant right hemisphere. The related link explains in more detail how the brain works in an easy to understand way.
Lateralization...I'm pretty sure that's it...almost positive. Don't bet your life on it though, or a good grade...ha ha.
The left hemisphere and the right hemisphere.
right hemisphere and left hemisphere
The left hemisphere and the right hemisphere.
The brain has a left cerebral hemisphere and a right cerebral hemisphere, as well as a stem.
The Earth. Unless you are talking about your brain, which has a left side and a right side.

The neocrotex, also called the cerebral cortex, is divided into two hemispheres, left and right. The left hemisphere's functions are analytic thought, logic, language, science and math. The right hemisphere's functions include holistic thought, intuition, creativity, art, and music. The two hemispheres are connected by the corpus callosum. The cerebellum is also divided into left and right hemispheres.
There are two hemispheres of the brain
Lateralisation refers to the functional division of the brain into two hemispheres, the left and right hemisphere. Each hemisphere is responsible for different cognitive functions. For example, language processing is usually located in the left hemisphere, while spatial processing is typically located in the right hemisphere.
There are two hemispheres in your brain No, the brain is divided into two hemispheres, connected by the corpus callosum. Each hemisphere is divided into two lobes. The word 'hemisphere' means 'half a sphere'. As also in the hemispheres of the Earth and anything else round.
The left hemisphere is normally associated with the acquisition of language. The right hemisphere participates in the perception of space and distance.
