(A) True
(B) False

Answer 1

Hint: Human brain is made up of different parts and compartments. It is the command center for the human nervous system. It receives signals from the body’s sensory organs and outputs information to the muscles.

Complete answer: Fore-brain is the main thinking part of the human brain that means it controls the intelligence part. The actions performed by various sense organs like ears, eyes, nose, tongue, skin. It is the main reason due to which humans are placed at the highest level in the animal chain. The forebrain consists of the cerebrum, Thalamus, and Hypothalamus. Apart from the fore-brain, there are two more parts of the human brain namely: the Midbrain connects the fore-brain and the hind-brain. It acts as a bridge and helps in transferring signals passing through the hind-brain to the fore-brain. It is associated with hearing, motor control, vision, alertness, temperature regulation. Hind-brain is the control center for visceral function. This part of the brain plays an important role in controlling the breathing, blood pressure, heart rate, sleep and wake up functions, etc. The hind-brain consists of three parts: Medulla oblongata, pons, and cerebellum.
Additional Information: The study of the anatomy of the brain is ‘Neuroanatomy’. The study of its function is ‘Neuroscience’. There are a lot of techniques used to study the brain. The research of the brain is evolved with the passage of time with theoretical, experimental, philosophical phases.
Hence, the correct answer is option (A), i.e., True.

Note: The human brain is the largest brain of all vertebrates relative to body size. The brain makes up about 2% of a human’s body weight. The weight of the brain is 1.5kg in humans.
