The fact that the development of individual areas of the brain are highly variable is proven by comparative brain studies among animals. Brains are extremely complex. The brain has individua areas demarcated for vision (visual), hearing (auditory), taste (gustatory), and smell (olfactory). The bigger the individual area, more pronounced is its corresponding function. Compared to dogs and wolves, the relative size of the olfactory area of a human brain is smaller, while the human brain's visual area is more pronounced. Dog breeds not only show differences in outward appearances but also show variations in their relative volumes of the olfactory lobe. This explains why some breeds alone are suitable for police functions like scent detection. The German Shepherd, Belgian Malinois, and Beagle are the popular ones with the police. What can we infer from comparative brain studies? The brain has individual areas demarcated for vision, hearing, taste, and smell The relative size of the olfactory area of a human brain is smaller The relationship between variations in the brain and its corresponding variations in functionality None of the choices
