What is the left brain responsible for?

Physiologists have long been studying the human brain, and although much they do not yet know, they still figured out what the left and right hemispheres are responsible for, what are the main centers there, and how neurons function.

Functions of the left hemisphere of the brain

  1. According to research, this hemisphere is responsible for verbal information, that is, for the ability to learn languages, writing, reading.
  2. Only thanks to the neurons of this part of the brain, we can understand what is written, independently express our own thoughts on paper, talk in native and foreign languages.
  3. Also, the left hemisphere of the human brain is responsible for analytical thinking.
  4. The construction of logical calculations, the examination of facts and their analysis, the ability to draw conclusions and establish cause-effect relationships - all of these are also functions of this part of the brain.
  5. If there is damage to certain centers of the hemisphere, a person can lose these abilities, cure such a disorder and restore the ability to think analytically , is very difficult, even with the current level of medical development.

Development of the left hemisphere

If a person has more developed left cerebral hemisphere than right, it is likely that he will become either an excellent linguist or translator, or will engage in exact sciences or analytical work. Scientists claim that it is possible to influence the development of this area of ​​the brain, they advise the development, especially in childhood, of fine motor skills of the fingers.

It is believed that the drawing of small parts, the assembly of designers from small parts, weaving and other similar exercises affect the work of the left hemisphere, making it more developed. The effectiveness of such exercises in children is higher, but an adult can succeed , if he makes the proper effort and will spend at least 3-4 hours a week on their implementation.
