  • B. Lateral sulcus
  • C. Corpus callosum

Explanation

The two hemispheres in your brain are connected by a thick bundle of nerve fibers called the corpus callosum, which ensures both sides of the brain can communicate and send signals to each other. The "corpus callosum" is the primary commissural region of the brain, consisting of white matter tracts that connect the left and right cerebral hemispheres.
