Solution

The correct option is B

Cerebrum


The part mentioned is known as the cerebrum. It is the largest part of the brain and the uppermost part of the nervous system. It has a highly convoluted surface which increases the surface area of the brain, allowing billions of neurons within a small space. It is the main centre of thought, intelligence, memory and imagination. It controls all voluntary movements with the help of cerebellum.
