Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The frontal lobes are located directly behind the forehead. The frontal lobes are the largest lobes in the human brain and they are also the most common region of injury in traumatic brain injury.

Detailed explanation-3: -The superior parietal lobule has close links with the occipital lobe and is involved in aspects of attention and visuospatial perception, including the representation and manipulation of objects.
