Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Broca area, located in the left frontal lobe, is responsible for the motor aspects of speech production, such as the planning and execution of movements involved in speaking. The Wernicke area, on the other hand, is responsible for language comprehension. The primary speech area is a broader term that encompasses both the Broca and Wernicke areas. The insula, although involved in aspects of speech and language processing, is not specifically responsible for the motor aspects of speech production.
