PSIO 201: Human Anatomy & Physiology I Instructions: Create a series of PowerPoint slides or Google Slides about a functional area of the cerebral cortex and the consequences that would result from a deficit in that area. Prepare your slides as if you were using them to teach this concept to a friend who has not taken this course. Your homework should not focus on Broca’s area or Wernicke’s area and aphasia, as these topics were covered in the lecture videos. • Choose one of the following functional areas of the cerebral cortex: o Primary visual area o Visual association area o Primary auditory area o Auditory association area o Primary somatosensory area • Include the information below in your slides. o At least one image (with labels) to demonstrate the anatomical location of this area o A detailed description of the function of this area o An explanation of what might happen if this area suffered damage or was otherwise deficient. Give specific examples using your own words. o Using your favorite search engine, look up cases with this type of injury or deficit. You can look for media articles, scientific articles, YouTube videos, or other sources. Include a slide that summarizes the information you found, and explain how it is relevant. Remember to cite your sources! HOMEWORK 4.2 – Functional Areas of the Brain Upload your completed homework in .pdf format. Do not upload share links (e.g., Google Slides) or Pages files. Please include your initials in the file name (e.g., Homework 4.2 ABC.pdf). This homework is due to the D2L submission folder by Friday, April 8th at
