Solution

The correct option is B Both B and C
The association area of the cerebrum integrate the sensory stimuli from the different receptors and based on the memories gathered from the past stimuli, it initiates the response impulse for the effector organs. The association area of the cerebrum like Wernicke's area is concerned with the stimulus and response of the speech. The olfactory area is concerned with sound. The gustatory area is concerned with taste.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Both B and C'
