Which statement is true of the brain?

Answer
A
It is protected by the skull.
B
It is protected by the vertebrae.
C
It is responsible for reflexes.
D
It is found in the abdominopelvic cavity.

Explanation

The brain is located inside the skull, which protects it from injury. The vertebrae protect the spinal cord, and the brain is in the cranial cavity, not the abdominopelvic cavity. Many reflexes are coordinated by the spinal cord rather than the brain.
