Answer and Explanation:

Cerebral cortex is highly developed in humans. It is found in the cerebrum as the outer layer of neural tissue.

Cerebral cortex is divided into two zones.

Each of these zones has further divided into four lobes as follows:

Frontal,

Parietal,

Temporal,

Occipital.

And the lobes are further divided into number of bumps and grooves.

Folding of brain results in bumps and grooves makes the surface area increase due to which large cerebral cortex get fit into skull.
