The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Broca's Area**: Broca's area is located in the left frontal lobe of the brain and is primarily responsible for the production of speech and language processing. It plays a crucial role in motor control related to speech. 2. **Effects of Injury**: When Broca's area is injured, it leads to a condition known as Broca's aphasia. This condition is characterized by difficulty in speech production. Individuals may understand language but struggle to express themselves verbally. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1**: "The speech muscles will be paralyzed." This is incorrect as paralysis of speech muscles is not the primary issue; rather, the problem lies in the brain's ability to coordinate speech. - **Option 2**: "The speech will be scattered and will not be clear." While speech may be affected, this does not accurately describe the primary effect of Broca's area injury. - **Option 3**: "Will not be able to speak." This option correctly reflects the primary consequence of Broca's area injury, as individuals with Broca's aphasia often cannot produce speech. - **Option 4**: "Will be able to speak but only written words." This is misleading; individuals with Broca's aphasia typically struggle with both spoken and written language. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the most accurate answer is that if Broca's area is completely injured, the individual "will not be able to speak" (Option 3). **Final Answer**: If Broca's area is completely injured, the individual will not be able to speak. ---
