1. **True or False**: The brainstem controls involuntary functions.
- **True**: The brainstem is responsible for regulating many involuntary functions, such as heart rate, breathing, and blood pressure.
2. **True or False**: The large fiber tract that lets cerebral hemispheres “talk” to one another is the corticospinal tract.
- **False**: The large fiber tract that connects the two cerebral hemispheres is the **corpus callosum**, not the corticospinal tract, which primarily carries motor commands from the brain to the spinal cord.
3. **Plans and produces speech**:
- The correct answer is **e. cerebrum, Broca's area**. Broca's area is located in the frontal lobe of the brain and is critical for speech production and language processing.
- **True**: The brainstem is responsible for regulating many involuntary functions, such as heart rate, breathing, and blood pressure.
