Answer:

lateralization of brain function

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The cerebral hemisphere is divided into two parts the median longitudinal fissure - the right and the left hemisphere.
  • The two hemispheres are connected by the corpus callosum.
  • Structurally the two hemispheres are similar however functionally the two hemispheres differ fro meach other owing to the presence of different neuronal networks present in them.
  • Therefore, there is a tendency for each of the two hemispheres to control different functions of the brain and this tendency is called lateralization of brain function.
