In the human brain:
A)The frontal lobe controls sensory integration
B)The precentral gyrus controls voluntary movement
C)The basal ganglia are located in the non-dominant hemisphere
D)Obsessive-compulsive behaviors are controlled by the same area responsible for language production

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The precentral gyrus is a major part of the motor cortex and controls voluntary movement.

Note: None of the other choices are accurate. The frontal lobe is involved in many functions, including higher cognitive processes, decision-making, and motor planning, but not sensory integration. The basal ganglia are located in both hemispheres and are involved in motor control, but not language or dominant/non-dominant hemispheres. Obsessive-compulsive behaviors are not controlled by the same area responsible for language production; they are associated with dysfunction in the cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical circuitry.
