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.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
