In which of the cerebral lobes is the speech centre located?

  • A.frontal
  • B.parietal 
  • C.temporal
  • D.occipital

Answer: A

The speech centre lies in the frontal lobe.

Broca's area, in the lower frontal lobe of the dominant hemisphere - usually the left - controls the production of speech. Wernicke's area, in the temporal lobe, handles comprehension, and damage to the two gives quite different kinds of aphasia.
