Question

John is having difficulty coordinating his movements. What part of his brain is likely to be damaged? What type of memory is likely to be affected?

Answer 1

I'm going to guess it would be ''Temporal lobe''.

The temporal cortex, that is also known as the temporal lobes, is
the part of the verbal cortex in the left and right hemispheres
of the brain lying inside the temples.
In general the temporal lobes handle a wide variety of task that are essential to every
day functioning.


A patient who is experiencing dominant temporal lobe
problems may suffer from one or more of the these following
symptoms:
Decreased verbal memory (words, lists, stories),
difficulty placing words or pictures into discreet categories,
trouble understanding the context of words, aggression;
internally or externally driven, dark or violent thoughts,
sensitivity to slights, mild paranoia, word finding problems,
auditory processing problems, reading difficulties, as well as
emotional instability!
