The cerebral cortex consists of four lobes: the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes.

The frontal lobe situated behind the forehead regulates personality, intelligence, voluntary muscle control, and emotional regulation.

The prefrontal cortex, an integral part of the frontal lobe, manages higher cognitive functions such as planning, reasoning, and self-control.

The parietal lobe, positioned behind the frontal lobe, regulates tactile stimuli, such as touch, pressure, pain, and temperature. It plays a role in spatial orientation and movement coordination.

The parietal lobe also tracks the location, shape, and orientation of objects. Additionally, it relays sensory information to the motor cortex, which is responsible for physical movements.

The temporal lobe located above the ear manages hearing, language processing, and memory. It is linked to the limbic system and influences long-term memory storage.

The occipital lobe, located at the back of the brain, processes visual stimuli, including color, shape, and motion.
