What is the visual cortex?
A condition in which people have limited verbal output this is agrammatic in nature.
What is Broca aphasia?
Loss of ability to voluntarily execute the movements of speech.
What is speech apraxia?
Cortex involved in selecting, planning, and sequencing of complex voluntary motor movements of the opposite side of the body in the absence of muscular weakness.
What is the premotor cortex?
Difficultly in reading/sounding out new words or non-words.
BA's 23, 24, 25, 26, 29, 30, 31, 32, and 33.

Cortex that activates the motor plans from areas 44 and 6 by sending motor signals to muscles on opposite side of the body to move.
What is the Primary Motor Cortex?
Involved in attaching meaning to auditory information, especially speech and language.
