The cerebrum is the thinking part of the brain and it controls voluntary movement, learning, intelligence and memory. It is the largest part of the brain. The spinal cord directly controls reflex action. The message reaches the spinal cord, which instructs the body to respond to the action. Reflex actions are directly controlled by the spinal cord. The brain stem or medulla controls involuntary muscles responsible for actions such as heartbeat, breathing, digestion, etc. It connects the brain to the spinal cord. Motor nerves carry messages from the brain or spinal cord to other organs. The cerebellum helps to maintain the balance of the body and also maintain the posture. It is located below the cerebrum. Hence, 1. cerebrum c. controls thinking 2. spinal cord a. controls reflex action 3. brain stem e. controls involuntary muscles 4. motor nerve b. takes messages from the brain 5. cerebellum d. controls balance

(A)- (3) The olfactory receptors play an important role in the sense of smell. It is present specifically in the nose. The olfactory bulb present in the forebrain region of the brain is mainly concerned with the function of olfactory receptors. (B)- (4) Thermoreceptors detect the differences in temperature in the surrounding environment. They are found throughout the skin. The parietal lobe of the brain is mainly concerned with the function of the thermoreceptors. (C)- (1) Gustatoreceptors facilitates the sensation of taste present in the taste buds on the surface of the tongue. The temporal lobe is concerned with the function of gustatoreceptors. (D)- (3) Photoreceptors are the special receptors present in the retina of eyes to receive light. These are of two types: Rods and cones. The former contains the rhodopsin pigment, and the latter contains the iodopsin pigment.
