Question

Pick the correct statements about the main functions of cerebrum in humans a)Control contraction of voluntary muscles through frontal lobe

b)Control sensitivity, movement, memory, vocabulary through frontal lobe c)Control temperature, taste, touch, pain, etc. through parietal lobe

d)Control vision and adaptation through occipital and frontal lobes

• A. a, c, d
• B. a, b, d
• C. a, b, c
• D. b, c, d

Answer 1

The correct option is A a, c, d

The voluntary movements are commanded by the motor cortex, the zone of the cerebrum located behind the frontal lobe. The motor cortex sends a neural message that moves through the brain stem along the spinal cord and into the neural network to the muscle being commanded. The middle part of the brain, the parietal lobe helps a person to identify objects and understand spatial relationships (where one's body is compared to objects around the person). The parietal lobe is also involved in interpreting pain and touch in the body. The parietal lobe processes information about temperature, taste, touch and movement, while the occipital lobe is primarily responsible for vision. The temporal lobe processes memories, integrating them with sensations of taste, sound, sight and touch.

Hence the correct answer is (A)
