Solution

The correct option is B Cerebellum
The cerebellum controls the posture and balance in the body because it receives the information from the inner ear, eyes, muscles etc which estimates the axis of the body and send signals to corresponding muscles for postural correction.
So, the correct option is 'Cerebellum'.
