Which of the following is NOT a lobe of the brain?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The brain is divided into four main lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital. The dorsal aspect refers to the upper part of the brain or spinal cord and is not a specific lobe. Each lobe has distinct functions, such as the frontal lobe's role in decision-making and the temporal lobe's involvement in hearing and language. The dorsal term is used anatomically to describe location rather than structure.
