The Right and Left Hemisphere of the Cerebrum are Connected

Question

The right and left hemisphere of the cerebrum are connected by the ____________.
A)Postcentral gyrus
B)Precentral gyrus
C)Corpus callosum
D)Ventricles

Accepted Answer

The corpus callosum is a broad band of nerve fibers that connects the two hemispheres of the cerebrum and allows communication and coordination between them. The postcentral gyrus and precentral gyrus are both located in the cerebral cortex and are involved in sensory and motor functions, respectively, but are not specifically involved in connecting the hemispheres. The ventricles are fluid-filled cavities within the brain and are not involved in connecting the hemispheres.
