A Correct answer
Explanation

The limbic system is basic to motivation, emotion, and reward processes. It controls emotional expression through the hypothalamus, which has control over the body's emotional responses systems. The thalamus in the limbic system (' leopard brain') signals the brain thus we get to feel satisfaction for each mouthful of food. The acid and semi-digested fats in the duodenum trigger the enterogastricreflex – the duodenum sends inhibitory signals to the stomach by way of the enteric nervous system, and sends signals to the medulla that inhibit the vagal nuclei, thus reducing vagal stimulation of the stomach. Association cortex is the cerebral cortex outside the primary areas. It is essential for mental functions that are more complex than detecting basic dimensions of sensory stimulation, for which primary sensory areas appear to be necessary. So the correct option is 'A−2,B−3,C−4,D−1'.
