What else can I help you with?
What function do you lose if you damage the temporal lobe?
Sense of smell and sound, speech, vision and memory.
What is a focal lesion on the temporal lobe?
Distinct damage to one area of the brain. The temporal lobe of the brain has many functions. Some of which: hearing and language processing and facial recognition. Depending on which hemisphere (right v. left) the damage occurs, the person can have many deficits in communication (esp. if on the dominant hemisphere, left for most people).
Damage to this cerebral lobe causes cortical deafness?
Temporal lobe
What parts of the brain does schizophrenia damage?
Schizophrenia damages the frontal and temporal lobes and the vesicles.
What is temporal artheritis?
Temporal arteritis is an inflammation of the blood vessels usually caused by some sort of damage or injury. These blood vessels are the ones that supply blood to the head.
Damage to which portion of the cerebral cortex would most likely interfere with hearing?
Temporal Lobe
Which of the following supports the notion that distinct neural mechanisms are involved in word recognition and object recognition?
Brain damage can impair word recognition, but not object recognition and Certain mental diseases produce changes in word recognition and object recognition.
What is temporal lobe?
The temporal lobe is a region of the brain located on the sides and base of the brain, involved in processing sensory inputs, auditory perception, memory, and language. It plays a crucial role in hearing, language comprehension, and memory formation. Damage to the temporal lobe can result in issues with memory, language, and auditory processing.
What effect on memory does brain damage to the temporal lobe cause?
Damage to the temporal lobe can lead to impaired memory function, especially in formation of new memories (anterograde amnesia) and in retrieval of old memories (retrograde amnesia). It can also impact the ability to recognize faces or objects.
What causes associative dysphasia?
Damage to the upper temporal lobe, lower parietal, or connection between the Wernicke's and Broca's areas
What is the curved structure located within each temporal lobe?
The curved structure located within each temporal lobe is the hippocampus. It plays a crucial role in memory formation, spatial navigation, and learning. The hippocampus is shaped like a seahorse and is essential for converting short-term memories into long-term storage. Damage to this area can lead to significant memory impairments, such as those seen in conditions like Alzheimer's disease.
Wave that produces the most surface damage?
A secondary wave!
