A
Cerebral peduncles
💡 Explanation:
  • The cerebral peduncles (also known as the cerebral crus) are the part of the midbrain that links the brainstem and the cerebrum of the brain. 
  • They are the most anterior structure in the midbrain and contain the large ascending and descending tracts that run to and from the cerebrum. Hence, Cerebral peduncles connect the cerebrum of brain and brain stem.
    • So, the correct answer is 'Cerebral peduncles'.
