Olfactory wall
B
Pallium
C
Corpus striatum
D
No thick wall
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Your cerebral cortex is the outer layer that lies on top of your cerebrum. Your cerebrum is the largest area of your brain. Your cerebrum divides your brain into two halves called hemispheres. The hemispheres are attached by a bundle of nerve fibers called the corpus callosum.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cerebrum is divided into the left and right hemispheres by a deep longitudinal fissure; the two hemispheres remain in contact and communication with one another by the corpus callosum. Each hemisphere further subdivides into a frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobe.

Detailed explanation-3: -The corpus callosum (Latin for “tough body"), also callosal commissure, is a wide, thick nerve tract, consisting of a flat bundle of commissural fibers, beneath the cerebral cortex in the brain. The corpus callosum is only found in placental mammals.

Detailed explanation-4: -Corpus callosum (in green). The corpus callosum is a large, C-shaped nerve fiber bundle found beneath the cerebral cortex.It stretches across the midline of the brain, connecting the left and right cerebral hemispheres. It makes up the largest collection of white matter tissue found in the brain.
