Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The insula is responsible for processing and experiencing physical pain, so if Terrance is unable to respond to other people's physical pain, it is likely that his insula was damaged. The prefrontal cortex, orbitofrontal cortex, and ventromedial prefrontal cortex are not directly involved in processing physical pain.
