Mirror neurons are active both when we perform an action and when we observe someone else performing the same action. They are found in the motor cortex and are believed to play a role in social cognition, empathy, and imitation. The other options, pons, neurogenetic nodes, and neurilemmas, are not related to mirror neurons or the motor cortex.
