What is the most important area of the left brain?
The somatosensory cortex
Which area of the brain is responsible for spatial discrimination?
The Primary somatosensory cortex
What task does the somatosensory cortex primarily engage inWhat task does the somatosensory cortex primarily engage in?
This part of the brain processes information from the skin (touch, temperature and pain).
What part of brain lobe contains the somatosensory cortex?
The primary somatosensory cortex is located in the lateral postcentral gyrus. That structure is itself located within the parietal lobe in the cerebral cortex.
Which part of the brain is responsible for spatial discrimination?
The primary somatosensory cortex is responsible for spatial discrimination
What is the name of the lobe of the brain that is located behind the frontal lobe and includes the somatosensory cortex?
That is called as parietal lobe.
Where is the major part of the somatosensory cortex located?
It is located just behind the central sulcus in the parietal lobe of the brain.
Where is the somatosensory cortex?
partial lobes
Where is the primary sensory cortex located?
The primary sensory cortex (or primary somatosensory cortex) is part of the postcentral gyrus in the brain, which forms part of the parietal lobe.The main function of the primary sensory cortex is it is a receptor for the sense of touch.parietal lobe
What lobe contains somatosensory cortex?
parietal lobe
The motor cortex sits just posterior of the central fissure in the frontal lobes whereas the somatosensory cortex sits next to the central fissure in the parietal lobes of the cerebral cortex?
Wrong. The motor cortex is the prominent gyrus that is ancterior to the central sulcus. The Somatosensory cortex is the prominent gyrus that is posterior to the central sulcus.
Where is Primary somatosensory cortex located?
partial lobes
