Match the parts of the human brain listed under Column I with the functions given under Column II. Choose the answer which gives the correct combination of alphabets of the two columns.

Correct answer: C. A=t, B=p, C=q, D=r

  • A. A=r, B=q, C=p, D=s
  • B. A=r, B s, C=q, D=t,
  • C. A=t, B=p, C=q, D=r
  • D. A=t, B=q, C=p, D=s

Explanation

Your cerebral hemisphere plays a key role in memory, intelligence, thinking, learning, reasoning, problem-solving, emotions, consciousness, and functions related to your senses. (so A=T, hence options A and B are incorrect). The thalamus is your body's information relay station. All information from your body's senses (except smell) must be processed through your thalamus before being sent to your brain's cerebral cortex for interpretation (so B=P, hence options A, B, and D are incorrect). The cerebellum controls voluntary movements such as walking, posture, balance, coordination, eye movements, and speech (C=Q). Neurons in the medulla also control arousal and sleep (D=R).

About Coordination and Control

Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
