Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The frontal lobe is responsible for motor function, problem solving, spontaneity, memory, language, initiation, judgment, impulse control, and social and sexual behavior. A stroke in the left frontal lobe can lead to paralysis or weakness on the right side of the body (due to the brain's cross-wiring where each hemisphere controls the opposite side of the body) and difficulties with planning and maintaining attention, matching Brad's symptoms.
