The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Structures**: The question asks about the locations of "genu" and "splenium". These are specific anatomical terms related to parts of the brain. 2. **Understand the Terms**: - The "genu" refers to the anterior (front) part of the corpus callosum. - The "splenium" refers to the posterior (back) part of the corpus callosum. 3. **Locate the Corpus Callosum**: The corpus callosum is a significant structure in the brain that connects the left and right cerebral hemispheres. 4. **Identify the Brain Region**: Since the genu and splenium are parts of the corpus callosum, and the corpus callosum is located in the cerebrum, we conclude that both genu and splenium are located in the cerebrum. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question is that genu and splenium are located in the **cerebrum**. ---
