Solution
The correct option is C Cerebrum
Pons, cerebellum and medulla oblongata are considered a part of hindbrain forming the brain stem together.
Cerebrum is the part of forebrain and constitutes four-fifth of brain's weight. The forebrain has sensory regions, which receive sensory impulses from various receptors. It also has motor regions, which control the movement of various muscles such as leg muscles. A certain part of the cerebrum primarily controls intelligence, learning, memory, thinking, and the ability to articulate speech. Some regions of the cerebrum along with hypothalamus are involved in the regulation of sexual behaviour and expression of emotional reactions.
