Answer 1

Answer:

It is associated with B. Language production.

Explanation:

Broca's area is situated on the left frontal hemisphere of the brain. It is in charge of one's language articulation, focusing on producing a clear and coherent message, wether it is written or spoken.

Broca's aphasia, for example, occurs when the area received a lesion which in turn affects an individual's language production. Common symptoms are:

• Lack of fluency whilst speaking or writing.
• Trouble pronouncing words.
• The ability to understand language remains the same. This is because Broca's area is only associated with language production, unlike Wernicke's area, which is associated with understanding language.
