Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to research on face recognition and working memory, the fusiform gyrus is most active during the encoding of a face stimulus, while the prefrontal cortex is active during the delay period. Therefore, option B is the correct answer. Option A and C are incorrect as they both list structures involved in emotional and attentional processes rather than face recognition and working memory. Option D is also incorrect as the hippocampus is involved in long-term memory processes rather than working memory.
