Claudette has an fMRI and her doctor says that he notices that the gray matter has peaked in the part of her brain beneath the cortex and part of the basal ganglia involved in control of movement, muscle tone, attention, and emotional states. Claudette's doctor is referring to what part of the brain?

Cerebellum

Explanation:

fMRI or Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a technique used to map the activity in brain. It works on the principle that blood supply to an area in brain is increased when it is in use.

The area referred to by Claudette's doctor is cerebellum. It is located beneath the occipital lobe of cerebral cortex. It is involved in coordinating body movements and maintaining muscle tone. It also controls emotions, language and attention.  It is connected with the sensory information receiving zones of cerebral cortex from were it processes the information.
