split-brain-patients-are-unable-to-a-coordinate-movements-between-their-major-and-minor-muscle-group

Split-brain patients are unable to (A) coordinate movements between their major and minor muscle groups. (B) speak about information received exclusively in their right hemisphere. (C) speak about information received exclusively in their left hemisphere (D) solve abstract problems involving integrating logical (lefthemisphere) and spatial (right-hemisphere) information. (E) speak about information received exclusively through their left ear, left eye, or left side of their bodies.

both-cerebral-hemispheres-are-essential-for-proper-body-function-however-the-left-cerebral-hemispher-85611

Both cerebral hemispheres are essential for proper body function. However, the left cerebral hemisphere controls the right side of the body, whereas the right cerebral hemisphere controls the left side of the body. Why is this the case? a. The descending neural connections are not switched in the brainstem, which means that the neural connections of the left hemisphere are transmitted to the right side of the body and vice versa. b. The ascending neural connections are not switched in the brainstem, which means that the neural connections of the left hemisphere are transmitted to the right side of the body and vice versa. c. The descending neural connections are switched in the brainstem, which means that the neural connections of the left hemisphere are transmitted to the right side of the body and vice versa. d. The ascending neural connections are switched in the brainstem, which means that the neural connections of the left hemisphere are transmitted to the right side of the body and vice versa.

this-figure-represents-a-split-brain-individual-processing-information-what-has-happened-to-the-brai

This figure represents a split-brain individual processing information. What has happened to the brain of this individual? Why does the processing of information occur as depicted? a. The parietal lobe has been cut, which severs the ability of the left hemisphere from communicating but increases the ability of the right hemisphere. b. The corpus callosum has been cut, which severs the ability of the left hemisphere from communicating but increases the ability of the right hemisphere. c. The frontal lobe has been cut, which severs the ability of the left and right hemispheres to communicate. d. The corpus callosum has been cut, which severs the ability of the left and right hemispheres to communicate.

00:03 In a split brain patient usually the left hemisphere controls the speech and so they usually show a problem to talk the information exposed to the right hemisphere.
01:09 Another thing about split brain patients are that their muscle coordination is normal.
01:33 Their ability to solve abstract problems are not affected...
