Which part increase the surface area of forebrain?
Correct answer: A. Cerebral cortex
- A. Cerebral cortex
- B. Infundibulum
- C. Corpus callosum
- D. None of the above
Explanation
Option A is correct as the cerebral cortex is responsible for increasing the surface area of the forebrain. It is folded into many folds, called gyri, and grooves, called sulci. This folding increases the surface area, which allows for more neurons to be packed into a smaller space.

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.
