Explanation:
Forebrain is the largest part of the brain consisting of two halves called cerebral hemispheres separated by longitudinal fissures. Each cerebral hemisphere is divided into four lobes-frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe and occipital lobe. Temporal lobe has cells that bring to consciousness, the sensations of hearing and smell. The frontal lobe has centers that are concerned with voluntary movements and personality. The parietal lobe is concerned with general sensations like temperature, touch, pressure, pain, and proprioception. The occipital lobe has centers of visual sense.
