Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.

The human brain has three main parts- forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The cerebellum is the part of the hindbrain along with the pons and medulla. The cerebellum receives the information from the sensory systems, spinal cord and other parts of the brain and is responsible for coordinating the voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination, and speech, along with involuntary movements resulting in smooth and balanced muscular activity.
