Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What lobe of the Cerebrum is responsible for sensory, distance, size, shape, and cognitive/intellectual processes?
A
Temporal
B
Frontal
C
Occipital
D
Parietal
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The parietal lobe is behind the frontal lobe, separated by the central sulcus. Areas in the parietal lobe are responsible for integrating sensory information, including touch, temperature, pressure and pain.

Detailed explanation-2: -The frontal lobe is involved in reasoning, motor control, emotion, and language. It contains the motor cortex, which is involved in planning and coordinating movement; the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for higher-level cognitive functioning; and Broca’s area, which is essential for language production.

Detailed explanation-3: -Your brain’s parietal lobe is a key part of your understanding of the world around you. It processes your sense of touch and assembles input from your other senses into a form you can use. Your parietal lobe also helps you understand where you are in relation to other things that your senses are picking up around you.

Detailed explanation-4: -The parietal lobe is separated from the occipital lobe by the parieto-occipital sulcus and is behind the central sulcus. It is responsible for processing sensory information and contains the somatosensory cortex.

Detailed explanation-5: -Your parietal lobe is located between your frontal and occipital lobes and above your temporal lobe. Functions of your parietal lobe include: Sensory information (touch, pressure, pain, position, vibration, temperature) processing. Spatial processing and spatial manipulation.
