B Correct answer
Explanation

The occipital lobe, located at the back of the brain, contains the primary visual cortex and processes visual information. While the optic nerves transmit visual signals, the conscious perception of sight occurs in the occipital lobe. Frontal lobes handle executive functions, parietal lobes process sensory and spatial information, and optic lobes are found in non-mammalian vertebrates.
