The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for a part of the brain that is involved in planning movements, blocking unsuitable behavior, and has roles in memory. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options provided are: - Visual cortex - Motor cortex - Somatosensory cortex - Prefrontal cortex 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Visual Cortex**: This area is primarily responsible for processing visual information. It does not play a significant role in planning movements or memory. - **Motor Cortex**: This area is involved in the execution of voluntary movements but does not primarily focus on planning or blocking behavior. - **Somatosensory Cortex**: This area processes sensory information from the body but is not directly involved in planning or memory. - **Prefrontal Cortex**: This area is involved in complex cognitive behavior, decision-making, planning movements, and regulating behavior. 4. **Selecting the Correct Answer**: Based on the analysis, the prefrontal cortex is the part of the brain that fits all the criteria mentioned in the question. It is central to planning movements, blocking unsuitable behavior, and has roles in memory. 5. **Final Answer**: The correct answer is **prefrontal cortex**. ---

The property of hydrides of p-block elements mostly depends on : (i) electronegativity differnece between central atom and hydrogen. (ii) size of central atom (iii) number of valence electrons in central atom Some undergo hydrolysis in which central is less electronegative, react with OH^(-) to give hydrogen. while acidic property of hydride in a period depends on electronegativity of central atoms. i.e. more electronegative is the atom, more acidic is hydirde. In a group, acidic property is proportional to size of central atom. Some electron deficient hydride behaves as Lewis acid while only one hydride of an element in p-block behaves as Lewis base with central atom's electronegativity is close to hydrogen has no reaction with water. Which hydride has no reaction wiht water ?

In general boiling point of covalent compounds is affect due to increasing molecular weight and hydrogen bonding. Thus it is obversed that the boiling point of octanol is greater that water while that of methanol is lesser than water. The other properties which are considerably affected due to hydrogen bond formation are acidic nature, melting point, anamalous behaviour of water below 4^(@)C ., It is therefore concluded that hydrogen bonding palys a vutal role in explaning many observable facts. Q. Which among the following has maximum boiling point?
