A Correct answer
Explanation

The brain tissue itself lacks pain receptors (nociceptors), so it cannot directly feel pain. However, the brain processes pain signals from the rest of the body - when you cut your finger, nerves send signals to the brain's pain centers, but the brain itself doesn't 'feel' that pain.
