The flow of information for speech comprehension starts at Wernicke's area, which processes the received auditory information and analyzes its meaning. Then, it passes through the posterior language area, which helps in understanding the grammatical structure of the sentence. Finally, it reaches the sensory and motor association cortex, which helps in understanding the intention of the speaker and generating an appropriate response.
