- D.
  
  M
Correct Answer
D. M

Explanation
The correct answer is M. The frontal lobe is responsible for various cognitive functions such as decision-making, problem-solving, and controlling emotions. In this question, M is the only option that represents the frontal lobe. J, K, and H do not correspond to the frontal lobe.

  F
Correct Answer
A. H

Explanation
The correct answer is H. The hypothalamus is a small region of the brain located below the thalamus and above the pituitary gland. It plays a crucial role in regulating various bodily functions such as temperature, hunger, thirst, and hormone production. It also helps to control the autonomic nervous system and is involved in the sleep-wake cycle.

  D
Correct Answer
C. E

Explanation
The correct answer is E. The pons is a structure located in the brainstem, specifically in the hindbrain. It acts as a bridge between different parts of the brain, connecting the cerebrum, cerebellum, and medulla oblongata. It is involved in various functions such as relaying sensory information, controlling sleep and arousal, and coordinating movements.

Option C is the correct answer because it is the only option that is located at the base of the brainstem. Option A is the cerebellum, which is responsible for motor coordination. Option B is the pons, which is involved in relaying signals between the cerebrum and cerebellum. Option D is the thalamus, which is responsible for relaying sensory information to the cerebral cortex.
