Solution
Cerebrum:
The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain.
Its function is to control muscle functions and speech, thought, emotions, reading, writing, and learning.
It is composed or divided into two cerebral hemispheres by a cerebral fissure.
The thick band of nerve fibers called corpus callosum joins the left and right hemispheres of the cerebrum.
Each hemisphere further subdivides into a frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobe.
