On which basis you know about the neurophysiological and microanatomical differences between the right and left hemispheres, choose the option here that correctly lists the properties of cortical tissue samples taken from the left hemisphere.
A)relatively greater high-order dendritic branching, relatively dense packing of cortical columns
B)relatively less high-order dendritic branching, relatively dense packing of cortical columns
C)relatively greater high-order dendritic branching, relatively loose packing of cortical columns
D)relatively less high-order dendritic branching, relatively loose packing of cortical columns

Question

The left hemisphere is dominant for language in most people. Language processing requires high-order dendritic branching for complex computations and loose packing of cortical columns to allow for more connections between neurons.
