hemisphere's

Brain half's attribute

Hemisphere's is the possessive form of hemisphere, indicating something belonging to or associated with a hemisphere—half of a sphere, especially half of the Earth (Northern, Southern, Eastern, or Western) or half of the brain.

The hemisphere's climate patterns differ markedly from those across the equator.

Each hemisphere's functions include distinct cognitive processes.
