Enumerate the brodman's area of the brain and specify their function?
Brodmann's areas are specific regions of the cerebral cortex. Some areas and their functions include: Area 4 (primary motor cortex) for voluntary movement, Area 17 (primary visual cortex) for visual perception, Area 41 and 42 (primary auditory cortex) for auditory processing, and Area 44 and 45 in the left hemisphere (Broca's area) for speech production.
What is the function of the postcentral gyrus?
To receive information primarily from the skin and muscles. To allow you to experience the sensations of temperature, pain, light touch, and proprioception ( a sense of where your body is). Because it receives sensations from the body, the Parietal Lobe is also called the primary somatosensory area
