Question

The sensation of sight in human brain is perceived by

• A. Optic lobes
• B. Occipital lobes
• C. Association area of frontal lobes
• D. Somaesthetic area of parietal lobes

Answer 1

The correct option is B Occipital lobes

The cerebrum of the brain can be divided into different lobes viz. frontal lobe, temporal lobe, parietal lobe and the occipital lobe. The occipital lobe that above the cerebellum is concerned with the sensation of the vision and sight because the optic nerve leads to this lobe from the retina of the eye. The association area of the frontal lobe is concerned with the analysis of the movement of the voluntary muscles. The somesthetic area of the parietal lobe is concerned with the sensation of pain, temperature, pressure etc.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Occipital lobes'
