The cerebral cortex can be divided into four sections, which are known as lobes. The four lobes are the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe and the temporal lobe.
1) Frontal lobe--located at the front of the brain (behind your forehead) and is associated with emotions, reasoning, planning, movement, swallowing and parts of speech. It is also involved in purposeful acts such as creativity, judgment, problem solving, and planning.
Example: crying when you are sad; painting a picture; judging right from wrong2) Parietal lobe-located in the middle section of the brain, behind the frontal lobes, above the temporal lobes, and at the top back of the brain and is associated with They are connected with the processing of nerve impulses related to the senses, such as touch, pain, taste, pressure, and temperature.

They also play a role in emotion and learning. The temporal lobes are concerned with interpreting and processing auditory (sound) and olfactory (smell) stimuli.
