• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Forebrain consists of two regions; namely cerebrum and diencephalon. A deep cleft divides the cerebrum longitudinally into two halves, which are termed as the left and right cerebral hemispheres. Each cerebral hemisphere is divided into four lobes, viz., frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe and temporal lobe. The frontal lobe is associated with intelligence, memory, judgment, problem-solving ability and controls voluntary activities. The parietal lobe is associated with the sense of touch, temperature, pressure, and pain. The temporal lobe is associated with the sense of taste, hearing, and smell. The occipital lobe is associated with sight.
