Video transcript

Hello everyone. And in today's video we have the following problem war Nikas area is involved in and so we are given a list of functions that it could be potentially involved in. I want you to recall from previous videos on the topic while we're in the area just fundamentally is and is a region in the brain that contains modern neurons involved in the comprehension of speech. So individuals that have damage in veronica's area, they are not going to be able to just grasp the meaning of words. If someone is speaking to them, they're not going to able to be able to understand them. And so these individuals have trouble generating this coherent speech to the person that is speaking to them because of the fact that they are not able to understand them. So answer choice B generating speech is actually going to be the correct answer to this question. So this is the end of the video. I really hope it helped you and I hope to see you on the next one.
