i thought that i knew about them, but i am totally confused now
it seems that only half part of the brain has the motor homunculus, the other half part has the sensory homunculus. am i correct?
look at this page's pics
http://calder.med.miami.edu/pointis/tbiprov/NURSI...
look at this one
http://www.cs.uta.fi/~jh/homunculus.html
it says:"Body on the left side is the motor homunculus"
and which part is which? i can't seem to find a good site to confirm it
someone help, thanks

ok i will try to explain for u
we have frontal lobe & parietal lobe remember?
the frontal controls motor
parietal controls sensory
each hemisphere has fronatal & parietal which controls the contralateral side of the body so in each hemisphere we have sensory homonoculus i\n parital & motor homonoculus in frontal in both hemispheres each control the contralateral side
got it ?
