Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The prefrontal cortex is involved in making decisions,forming goals and planning , it's also based on past memories.

The hippocampus is involved in forming long term memories and also in spatial navigation

The hypothalamus is the part of the brain responsible for the body's ability of homeostasis.it is also involved with endocrine control and works closely with the pitutary gland.
