Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research on laterality has shown that both hemispheres of the brain work in concert with each other for most tasks, and specialization may vary depending on the individual and the specific task. While the left hemisphere is typically more involved in language processing, and the right hemisphere is typically more involved in visual spatial processing, it is not accurate to say that one hemisphere is solely responsible for these functions. Thus, choice C is the most accurate statement.
