<prompt> Bilateral destruction of auditory cortex in man causesAlmost total deafnessHearing defect for higher frequency soundsDeficiency in interpretation of soundsInability for the orientation of sounds  <response>: C Deficiency in interpretation of sounds Lesion of auditory cortex leads to loss of recognition of total patterns with loss of analysis of properties of sound and sound localisation. Thus lesion of auditory cortex leads to defect in interpretation of sounds.
