Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fusiform face area (FFA) is a specific region in the brain's temporal lobe that is activated when viewing faces. Studies have shown that damage to the FFA can result in difficulties recognizing faces, indicating its importance in facial perception. The other options (prefrontal, countenance perception, hippocampal) are not specifically linked to facial perception.
