Cerebral Cortex:The outer layer of neural tissue of the cerebrum of the brain, playing a key role in memory, attention, perception, cognition, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness.
Hemispheric Lateralization: The distinction between functions of the left and right hemispheres of the brain; for example, language production is typically a function of the left hemisphere.
Neural Fibers: Long projections of neurons that transmit electrical impulses across distances within the brain; they include axons and dendrites
