After suffering a brain injury by falling from a ladder, Zack's wife continues to tell the doctor that his personality has chang
ed. He used to be fun loving and carefree, but he is now more critical and yells at his children for seemingly little reason. Zack is likely to have suffered damage to the __________ part of his cortex.
The cerebral cortex of the brain has four paired lobes.
one of these four paired lobes is the frontal lobe and it occupies 2/3rds of the entire human brain.
the frontal lobe is associated with performing tasks such as speech and language production, walking and running, classifying and identifying objects, reacting to feelings, forming memories, forming the personality of a person, and attention involving tasks.
Since after the injury, Zack has an altered personality and his reaction to the situation has changed, this points out to the fact that he is most likely suffering from frontal lobe injury.
Temperature affects the type of plants because different plants require different temperatures and precipitation levels. Such as in the case of cacti, they need very little precipitation and can withstand very high levels of heat.
