Question

The human hindbrain comprises three parts, one of which is:

A

Cerebellum

B

Hypothalamus

C

Spinal

D

Corpus callosum

Step-by-Step Solution

the hindbrain comprises three parts: pons, cerebellum, and medulla (oblongata). In contrast, the hypothalamus is part of the forebrain, and the corpus callosum is a tract of nerve fibres connecting the cerebral hemispheres (forebrain).

Exam Context & Concepts Covered

This question aligns with the NEET BIOLOGY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Neural Control and Coordination. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
