The correct sequence starts with the primary auditory cortex, which processes the sounds of the verbal command. Next, Wernicke's area interprets the meaning of the words. Broca's area then plans the motor aspects of speech or, in this case, the written response. The supplementary motor cortex is involved in planning complex movements, and finally, the primary motor cortex executes the actual movement of writing.
