Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The Broca area is responsible for the motor aspects of speech. Motor aspects of speech are not the function of the Wernicke area or Brodmann areas 4 and 6.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The surface of the cerebrum (cerebral cortex) is covered with convolutions called gyri, which greatly increase the cortical surface area and the number of neurons. Neither sulci, fissures, nor reticular formations cover the cerebrum in a fashion that increases its surface.
