Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe?
A
Lateral cerebral sulcus
B
Central sulcus
C
Pareto-occipital sulcus
D
Post central gyrus
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The parieto-occipital sulcus separates the parietal lobe from the occipital lobe. The lateral fissure (Sylvian fissure) is a laterally located horizontal fissure and separates the temporal lobe from the frontal and parietal lobe.

Detailed explanation-2: -The frontal lobe can be divided into a lateral, polar, orbital (above the orbit; also called basal or ventral), and medial part. Each of these parts consists of a particular gyrus: Lateral part: lateral part of the superior frontal gyrus, middle frontal gyrus, and inferior frontal gyrus.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the brain, the parietal lobe is located behind the frontal lobe. A boundary called the central sulcus separates the two lobes. The parietal lobe also sits above the temporal lobe, with the Sylvian fissure, or lateral sulcus, separating the two.

Detailed explanation-4: -The central sulcus separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe. The lateral cerebral sulcus separates the frontal lobe from the temporal lobe.
