Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale: The occipital lobe is involved in interpretation of visual perception and recognition, language, and memory formation. The right frontal lobe has functional responsibilities for muscular movement on the left side of the body. 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 a mastery of visual and spatial balance, mathematical ability, and spelling.
