Where is the location of the Frontal Lobe?
Located behind our foreheads.
This structure is primarily associated with language comprehension
Wernicke's Area
The number of cortexes/lobules mentioned
3
The location is where the occipital lobe is located in comparison to the occipital
Hint: Use directional terms
Posteriorly
Where is the insular lobe located?
Buried deep within the lateral sulcus.
