Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The cortical lobes of the cerebral cortex include the:
A
frontal lobe, prefrontal cortex, left hemisphere, right hemisphere
B
parietal lobe, occipital lobe, temporal lobe, frontal lobe
C
left hemisphere, right hemisphere
D
the hindbrain, forebrain, and midbrain
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lying right under the meninges, the cerebral cortex divides into four lobes: frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital lobes, each with a multitude of functions. It is characteristically known for its bulges of brain tissue known as gyri, alternating with deep fissures known as sulci.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are four lobes in the cortex, the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe, occipital lobe. This review article will focus on the functions of the cerebral cortex.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cerebral cortex is composed of four lobes: frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe, and occipital lobe. The major function of the cerebrum is to control the voluntary muscular movements of the body. The cerebral cortex is mainly involved in the consciousness.

Detailed explanation-4: -The frontal lobe is part of the brain’s cerebral cortex. It consists of two paired lobes: the left and right frontal cortex.

Detailed explanation-5: -The occipital lobe is one of the four major lobes of the cerebral cortex in the brain of mammals. The name derives from its position at the back of the head, from the Latin ob, “behind", and caput, “head". Medial surface of left cerebral hemisphere. (Cuneus and lingual gyrus are at left.)
