Hemispheric Structure and Function
Across
- 4. People who mainly use the left hand and may show different brain dominance patterns
- 5. Function often associated with the right hemisphere
- 6. Most people whose speech is dominant in the left hemisphere
- 8. Brain tendency to process speech and non-speech sounds differently
- 10. Stronger control of one hemisphere over certain functions
- 15. Subject often processed mainly in the left hemisphere
- 17. Brain side responsible for logic, speech, mathematics, and analytical thinking
- 20. Condition where the hemispheres are separated and cannot fully communicate
Down
- 1. Related to hearing and sound processing
- 2. Division of hemispheric brain functions
- 3. Separation of brain functions between the two hemispheres
- 7. Verbal sounds strongly processed by the left hemisphere
- 9. Brain side linked to creativity, spatial skills, and non-speech sound processing
- 11. Function usually controlled by the left hemisphere
- 12. Ear that often receives speech signals first in right-handed people
- 13. Sounds like music or environmental tones often linked to the right hemisphere
- 14. Logical and reasoning ability linked to the left hemisphere
- 16. Tone recognition often affected by right hemisphere damage
- 18. Thinking style associated with left hemisphere dominance
- 19. Brain injury that can damage hemisphere functions
