What is the inter relationship between language and cognition across the lifespan

The answer is...

Explanation: Language development has been correlated with specific changes in brain development. The aim of this paper is to analyze the linguistic-brain associations that occur from birth through senescence. Findings from the neuropsychological and neuroimaging literature are reviewed, and the relationship of language changes observable in human development and the corresponding brain maturation processes across age groups are examined. Two major dimensions of language development are highlighted: naming (considered a major measure of lexical knowledge) and verbal fluency (regarded as a major measure of language production ability). Developmental changes in the brain lateralization of language are discussed, emphasizing that in early life there is an increase in functional brain asymmetry for language, but that this asymmetry changes over time, and that changes in the volume of gray and white matter are age-sensitive. The effects of certain specific variables, such as gender, level of education, and bilingualism are also analyzed. General conclusions are presented and directions for future research are suggested.

a, b, c - sides of a triangle

a + b > c

a + c > b

b + c > a

we have a = 5m and b = 11m. substitute:

5 + 11 > c

16 > c → c < 16

5 + c > 11         subtract 5 from both sides

c > 6

11 + c > 5         subtract 11 from both sides

c > -6

c < 16 and c > 6 and c > -6

thereofre your answer is 6m < c < 16m
