Question

From an evolutionary perspective, the human brain produces remarkable capabilities in abstract thinking and fine motor control compared to other animals through overgrowth and folding of brain tissue in which two brain areas?

a. medulla and cerebellum
b. cerebellum and midbrain
c. cereberal cortex and cerebellum
d. cerebral cortex and midbrain

Answer 1

The answer is: c. Cerebral cortex and cerebellum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The human brain in biology is the main organ of the central nervous system. It is found inside the skull and has the same general structure as the brain of other mammals. Its main component is the cerebral cortex, a layer of folded neuronal tissue, which covers the surface of the hemispheres. Especially broad are its frontal lobes, which are associated with executive functions, such as self-control, planning, reasoning and abstract thinking.

The brain and cerebellum work together, as the first sends signals, while the cerebellum causes this movement to be coordinated.

The answer is: c. Cerebral cortex and cerebellum.
