Every biological function performed is associated with specific parts of the Brain. For example, language is associated with the Broca's area, sight with the Temporal lobe and so on. This association of certain functions to certain parts of the Brain is called projection. Behaviour that can be projected is called localized behaviour and this phenomenon is called Localization(also "Localisation") of the brain.
