The parietal lobe processes spatial information, while the temporal lobe is responsible for visual processing. This has been demonstrated in neuroscience research on mental imagery. Option A (preoptic area and suprachiasmatic nucleus) and Option B (prefrontal cortex and V5) are not associated with spatial and visual processing of mental imagery. Option D (LGN and MGN) also does not align with the specific functions described in the question.
