Detailed explanation-2: -The occipital lobe is the back part of the brain that is involved with vision.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cerebellum is located at the back of the head underneath the occipital and temporal lobes. The cerebellum creates automatic programs so we can make complex movements without thinking. The brain stem is located underneath the temporal lobes and extended down to the spinal cord.
