Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cauliflower is the best choice as a comparison for the shape of the cerebrum. The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain and is highly convoluted (wrinkled). These convolutions create ridges (gyri) and grooves (sulci) on the surface of the cerebrum, giving it a somewhat bulging, cauliflower-like appearance. The other choices - almond, sea horse, and cherry - do not accurately represent the overall shape of the cerebrum.
