Solution

The correct option is C Two large bands of nerve fibres
The cerebral peduncles (crus cerebri) are two large bundles of nerve fibres that converge as they proceed caudally from the cerebral hemispheres. At their rostral ends they are continuous with a band of white matter termed the internal capsule. These fibres represent the main connections between the cerebral cortex and the brain stem.
