A researcher would most likely use _______ to investigate which brain areas are active during speech?
A) computed tomography (CT)
B) X-ray
C) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
D) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is the best choice to investigate which brain areas are active during speech, as it allows researchers to measure changes in blood flow to specific areas of the brain, indicating increased neural activity. CT and X-ray imaging are less effective for studying brain function, and MRI provides structural images but not functional data.
