What is your dominant hemisphere?

HEMISPHERES BRAIN
Their function is to direct the learned behavior. The phenomena of consciousness, intelligence, memory, discernment and interpretation of sensations are based in physiological activities of neurons in the cerebral hemispheres.
The human brain has two hemispheres, united by “el cuerpo calloso”, which are related to very diverse areas of activity and act very different, but complementary.
The two halves of the brain are complementary. In most adults, speech centers are located on the left side. However, about 15% of left-handed and 2% of those who use right-handed, have speech centers in both parts of the brain.
Although the cerebral hemispheres have a symmetrical structure, certain intellectual functions are performed by a single hemisphere.
The dominant hemisphere of a person usually takes the language and logic operations, while the other hemisphere controls emotions and artistic and spatial skills. In almost all right-and in many left-handed people the left hemisphere is dominant.
A person that is “ambidiextro” indicates that the two halves of the brain have become so completely specialized as they are in right-handed individuals.


THE LEFT CEREBRAL HEMISPHERE
Receives information only on the right side of the body.
The left hemisphere processes information analytically and, step by step in a logical and linear. The left hemisphere analyzes, abstracts, account, and time, plans to step procedures, speaks, thinks in words and numbers, or contains the ability for math and reading and writing.
· This hemisphere employs a convergent thinking, getting new information by using data already available to form new ideas or data.
· Learn from part to whole and quickly absorbed the details, facts and rules.
· Analyzes the information step by step.
· Want to understand the components one by one.
THE RIGTH CEREBRAL HEMISPHERE
The right cerebral hemisphere receives information only on the left side of the visual field and the left side of the body. The right hemisphere is responsible for visual-spatial tasks, verbal non-imaginary (as visual images, music and environmental noise), face recognition and perception and expression of emotions. It's like the receiver and handles spatial orientation, responsible for our perception of the world in terms of color, shape and location.
· Learn from everything. To understand the parts you need from the global image.
· It does not analyze information, synthesize it.
·  Is relational

There are many theories about how each hemisphere makes to how a person thinks. One theory divides thinkers into two camps: visual simultaneous and sequential linear.
According to this hypothesis, most skilled people (who use her left brain) process information in a "linear sequential" which must complete its processing before they can begin the next.

Instead, says the hypothesis, individuals whose right hemisphere is dominant, process the information with "visual simultaneous" mode in which several schemes are processed simultaneously.


• An example to understand is to imagine that there are thousands of popcorn, one of which is colored pink. An individual "linear sequential" look at the pieces one by one until you find the rose colored, while an individual "visual simultaneous" extend all, the whole visual look of popcorn and see which one is pink.

Everyone we have the cerebral hemispheres but some of them that develop and reach their full use as the following for example:
