Answer:

Frontal lobe

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Cerebrum is the largest part of the brain and is divided in two hemispheres:Right hemisphere and Left hemisphere.
  • Each of the two hemispheres is further divided into four lobes :Frontal lobes,Parietal lobes,Temporal lobes,Occipital lobes
  • Cerebrum controls voluntary actions,memory,thought and speech.
  • Frontal lobe is located in the front of the brain.This lobe is responsible for critical thinking such as judgement and planning tasks.
