Solution

The correct option is C He will be unable to coordinate and stand properly
The cerebellum is located down to the occipital lobe of the cerebrum. The cerebellum is the vital part of the brain that controls the motor movements of the body. Its functions include coordinated movement, balance, posture, speech, etc. Thus in this case, if the cerebellum is damaged the person won't be able to stand or walk properly. So, the correct answer is option C.
