Question

True or False. The brain area that is activated when people smell disgusting food is similarly activated when they feel moral disgust in response to a perceived injustice.

Answer 1

True

Step-by-step explanation:

It is true that the brain area that is activated when people smell disgusting food is similarly activated when they feel moral disgust in response to a perceived injustice.

The brain area where this is activated is known as Insula (Insular cortex). It's a neural structure that is involved in both physical and moral disgust.

Unpleasant smell, tastes and sighting a disgusting object or situation activate the insula.
