Paired, irregular masses of gray matter buried deep within the central white matter of the basal region of the cerebral hemispheres, inferior to the floor of the lateral ventricle, are the cerebral nuclei. Therefore, option A is the best choice for this question. The corpus callosum is a broad band of nerve fibers that connect the two cerebral hemispheres, the inferior colliculus is part of the midbrain that is involved in auditory processing, the interthalamic adhesion connects the thalamus on both sides of the brain, and ventricular connections refer to the openings and passageways that connect the different ventricles in the brain.
