A
Cerebrum
B
Cerebellum
C
Brain
D
Spinal Cord
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cerebellum is at the back of the brain, below the cerebrum. It’s a lot smaller than the cerebrum. But it’s a very important part of the brain. It controls balance, movement, and coordination (how your muscles work together).

Detailed explanation-2: -The cerebellum-also called the “little brain” because it looks like a small version of the cerebrum-is responsible for balance, movement, and coordination.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cerebellum is important for making postural adjustments in order to maintain balance. Through its input from vestibular receptors and proprioceptors, it modulates commands to motor neurons to compensate for shifts in body position or changes in load upon muscles.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cerebellum. The cerebellum sits at the back of the brain and controls your sense of balance.

Detailed explanation-5: -The significant difference between cerebellum and cerebrum is their size. The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain, and it contributes nearly 80% of the total weight of the human brain. The cerebellum makes up the remaining part of the brain. The cerebrum controls voluntary movement, intelligence and memory.
