Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The prefrontal cortex plays a key role in personality, decision-making, and social behavior. Damage to this area can result in significant changes in personality, such as impulsive behavior, decreased empathy, and difficulty controlling emotions. Therefore, the most likely outcome for Ito would be a change in personality. The other options, such as death, loss of limbs, or hearing loss, are not directly related to damage in the prefrontal cortex.
