Question

Rohit categorized the functions of different lobes of cerebral hemisphere as given in the table below.

Group A	Group B	Group C	Group A
Smell, touch, temperature and conscious association	Auditory reception	Muscular activities	Visual reception

Which of the following have the correct headings for the given table?

• A. Group A : Temporal lobe, Group B : Parietal lobe, Group C : Frontal lobe,Group D : Occipital lobe
• B. Group A : Temporal lobe, Group B : Parietal lobe, Group C : Occipital lobe, Group D : Frontal lobe
• C. Group A : Parietal lobe, Group B : Temporal lobe, Group C : Frontal lobe, Group D : Occipital lobe
• D. Group A : Parietal lobe, Group B : Temporal lobe, Group C : Occipital lobe, Group D : Frontal lobe

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Group A : Parietal lobe, Group B : Temporal lobe, Group C : Frontal lobe, Group D : Occipital lobe

• The cerebral cortex is divided into four sections called lobes. These are parietal lobe, temporal lobe, frontal lobe, and occipital lobe.
• The parietal lobe is the region of touch, smell, temperature and consciousness association.
• The temporal lobe is the region of auditory reception. The frontal lobe is the region of muscular activities. The occipital lobe is the region of visual perception.
  

Thus, the correct answer is 'Group A: Parietal lobe, Group B: Temporal lobe, Group C: Frontal lobe, Group D: Occipital lobe'.
