Answer to Question 1

Answer: 4
Explanation: The occipital lobe is involved in visual perception and recognition, language, and memory formation. The temporal lobe is the emotional center and is involved with memory, cognition, and understanding the acoustic aspects of language. The parietal lobe facilitates complex motor and cognitive skills, such as mastery of visual and spatial balance, mathematical ability, and spelling. The frontal lobe has functional responsibilities for muscular movement and vegetative (slowing) effects on respiration and circulation.
