Zander is trying to determine the correct answer on a multiple-choice test. he has eliminated two of the four answer options because they do not fit the question, and now he is trying to recall what he knows about the question. which two parts of zander’s brain are working to perform these operations?

a) hippocampus and hypothalamus

b) hippocampus and cerebrum

c) cerebrum and cerebellum

d) cerebellum and hypothalamus

The correct answer to this question is B. In a situation where problem solving and recalling a possible answer are involved, the two parts of the brain used would be the hipppocampus and the cerebrum. The cerebrum would be responsible for the initial problem solving, and the decision to eliminate two answers. Meanwhile, the hippocampus is located in the temporal lobe, and it has been proved responsible for long term memory, so this is where possible information about the question would be stored.
