Solution

The cerebrum is divided into distinctive lobes. The temporal lobe is located behind ears and extends to both sides of the brain. The temporal lobe is involved in vision, memory, sensory input, language, emotion, and comprehension. It receives sensory information such as sounds and speech from the ears. The olfactory cortex responsible for sense of smell, is found along the ventral surface of the temporal lobe.
