    __________a thick band of nerve fibers that connects the hemispheres of the brain.

    Explanation
    The corpus callosum is a thick band of nerve fibers that connects the hemispheres of the brain. It allows for communication and coordination between the left and right hemispheres, enabling them to work together in various cognitive and motor functions. This structure plays a crucial role in integrating information and facilitating the transfer of signals between the two hemispheres, allowing for efficient processing and functioning of the brain as a whole.

    A musician is more likely to exhibit left hemispheric dominant traits?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    False. The statement is incorrect. It is not accurate to say that a musician is more likely to exhibit left hemispheric dominant traits. While it is true that the left hemisphere of the brain is generally associated with language processing and analytical thinking, musical abilities involve a combination of both hemispheres. Musical creativity and expression often require the integration of various cognitive processes, including emotion, intuition, and spatial awareness, which involve both the left and right hemispheres of the brain. Therefore, musicians can exhibit traits associated with both hemispheres.

    A person may only have one hemispheric dominant side

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    This statement is false. The concept of hemispheric dominance suggests that individuals may have a dominant side of the brain, either the left or the right hemisphere. However, research has shown that both hemispheres of the brain work together and are involved in various cognitive functions. While certain tasks may be more strongly associated with one hemisphere, individuals do not have only one dominant side.
