A. Prefrontal cortex, Frontal lobe

Identify the region of the cerebral cortex that is involved in motor movement.

Primary motor cortex

What is the outer layer of the cerebrum that covers the brain?

Cerebral cortex

Which of the following options correctly identifies an impact of injury to the brain on a person's social functioning and the lobe of the brain responsible for this function?
