Rosemary had a stroke about a year ago and now she cannot understand what people are saying to her. this is embarrassing for her, so she responds using vague language and tries to make it appear as though she understands. which area of rosemary’s brain was likely damaged by the stroke? a. broca’s area b. occipital cortex c. prefrontal cortex d. wernicke’s area

Wernicke's Area

Explanation:

Wernicke's area is the region of general interpretation present in left temporal and parietal lobes. It receives the sensory information from other association areas of sensory functions and is responsible for the interpretation of the meaning of speech. This region recognizes the spoken words and translates the words into the thoughts.

Any damage to Wernicke's area makes the person unable to interpret the written and spoken words. These individuals are also unable to arrange the words in a consistent pattern.  Since Rosemary is unable to understand the spoken words and responds in a vague language, stroke might have affected the Wernicke's area of her brain.

not only is it colder, it also becomes darker, less salty, and more dense.
