Following the development of a brain tumor, jerome starts to exhibit impulsive behavior with little regard for right or wrong. he attacks a man in a bar for looking at him the "wrong" way, breaking the man’s nose and damaging bar property. yet, he feels no remorse for the harm he has caused. the tumor is most likely in jerome’s

a) somatosensory cortex
b) occipital lobe
c) parietal lobe
d) orbitofrontal cortex

The correct answer is option d) "orbitofrontal cortex".

Explanation:

The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is the region of the brain responsible of the cognitive process of decision-making. The OFC is involved in the senses of award and remorse based on the results of decision making actions. In this case Jerome exhibits impulsive behavior that lead him to break a man's nose for no reason and had no remorse for doing so. It is likely that Jerome has a tumor in the OFC, which affects his decision making judgement and his feeling of right and wrong.

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.
