Answer:

A. Right Temporal Lobe

Step-by-step explanation:

The main function of the temporal lobe is interpreting sensory input, both audio and visual., meaning, it analyzes everything we see and hear, and helps us comprehend the information.

The right temporal lobe also deals with our ability to understand and learn a languages, both in spoken and in written form, so when the participants read or listened to the word, the association had to come from the language area: the right temporal lobe.
