Which lobe is the back part of the brain that is involved with vision?
Correct answer: D. Occipital
- A. Frontal
- B. Parietal
- C. Temporal
- D. Occipital
Explanation
The occipital lobe is the back part of the brain that is involved with vision. The occipital lobe contains the primary visual cortex, which is responsible for processing visual information from the eyes. The primary visual cortex is located in the occipital lobe's medial aspect, and it surrounds the calcarine sulcus. The secondary visual cortex is located around the primary visual cortex, and it helps to interpret visual information such as depth, distance, and color. Damage to the occipital lobe can cause vision problems, such as blindness, loss of peripheral vision, and difficulty seeing colors.

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.
