Question

How does Paragraph 5 develop the idea that playing an instrument or singing can help develop the brain?

Answer 1

Answer:

Paragraph 5 in that question surely develops the idea that playing an instrument or singing can help develop the brain. It describes specific areas of the brain that benefit from learning to sing or play an instrument.

Explanation:

To identify the idea of a paragraph, we have to read the whole paragraph and get the important information in it. The whole paragraph 5 above mostly tells about the parts of the brain which include the process of interpreting sensory information, like playing instruments or singing. It describes one by one, parts of the brain that are affected by music.

For example, both rights and left sides of the brain are activated when we play or listen to music. These parts of the brain are being stimulated by music where this condition will increase the efficiency in processing information. The center of the brain which takes responsibility to figure out what must get done and how to do it is also developed by music. Researchers even find out that the center of the brain is more developed in musically trained students than in those who are not well trained.  

Thus, it can be said that paragraph 5 surely develops the idea that playing an instrument or singing can help develop the brain by describing specific areas of the brain that benefit from learning to sing or play an instrument.
