Which part of the human brain is responsible for maintaining posture and balance?
A. Thalamus
B. Cerebellum
C. Cerebrum
D. Hypothalamus
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
The cerebellum, located at the back of the brain below the cerebrum, coordinates voluntary movements, maintains posture, balance, and muscle tone. Damage leads to unsteady gait and tremors. The cerebrum controls thinking, memory, and voluntary actions. Thalamus relays sensory impulses, hypothalamus regulates body temperature, hunger, and endocrine functions. Cerebellum is often called the 'little brain'.
