Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct route of information through the Papez circuit is from the cingulate gyrus to the parahippocampal gyrus, then to the hippocampus. From here, the information travels through the fornix to the mammillary bodies and then to the anterior nucleus of the thalamus. Finally, the information returns to the cingulate gyrus, thus completing the circuit. Option A and C have a few errors, whereas option D is an unrelated answer.
