The answer is; B

The thallium receives sensory information, such as visual and auditory, processes the information and passes it to requisite areas of the brain such as the cortex. It acts as the hub for the brain were most signals pass through and are channeled. Thalamus also plays a significant role in sleep and consciousness of a person.
