What types of problems will happen if you damage your angular gyrus?

Angular gyrus is the Brodmann's Area 39 and is commonly known as part of the Wernicke's area. This gyrus is responsbile for understanding written language. So, any damages to angular gyrus of your dominant hemisphere might result in "alexia" (loss the ability to understand the meaning of what you read, though you can see the words)

What does the dentate gyrus do?
The dentate gyrus receives input from the cortex, and sends output to the hippocampus proper
What causes Gerstmann syndrome?
In adults, Gerstmann syndrome may be acquired when bleeding into the brain during a stroke or after a traumatic head injury occurs in an area of the left parietal lobe called the angular gyrus.
Damage to the fusiform gyrus of the right inferior temporal cortex may result in a rare condition known as?
prosopagnosia: inability to recognize faces
Which brain area is primarily involved with reading aloud?
First it will go to your visual cortex, then to the Angular gyrus where the visual words are transformed into an auditory code, then to Wernicke's area which interprets the code, and then it will go to Broca's area where speech muscles are controled through the motor cortex. So the answer to the test question you obviously didn't study for is: Visual Cortex, Angular gyrus, Wernicke's area, Broca's area and the Motor Cortex. I'm only helping because I'm a dirty cheater too. Good luck!
What is the difference between supracallosal gyrus and indusium griseum?
They are simply the same thing. Supracallosal gyrus is the another name for indusium griseum. It's also called as gyrus epicallosus.

What is the general interpretive area?
Wernicke's area and angular gyrus
What if your conscious experience of self-identity depends primarily on the normal functioning of your?
Angular Gyrus
What is the Correlation between per and post central gyus?
The precentral gyrus is primarily responsible for motor function, while the postcentral gyrus is involved in somatosensory processing. They work together in the motor-sensory loop for coordinated movements and sensory feedback. Damage to either gyrus can disrupt this loop and impair movement and sensation.
What gyrus lies directly posterior to the precentral gyrus?
The post central gyrus lies directly posterior to the precentral gyrus. Both of these gyrus are located in the brain and are also almost parallel to one another.
Are there 2 angular gyrus one in each side of the brain?
yeah, there have to be. brain is symmetrical. and although they may serve not exactly the same function or different functions for different people, there always has to be two.
What causes Gerstmann syndrome?
In adults, Gerstmann syndrome may be acquired when bleeding into the brain during a stroke or after a traumatic head injury occurs in an area of the left parietal lobe called the angular gyrus.
What arches over diencephalon?
The cingulate gyrus
