A neural tube defect known as anencephaly results in babies born without a telencephalon. Determine the brain functions that would be absent
What will be an ideal response?

The cerebrum is responsible for higher mental functions, including memory, learning, personality, cognition, language, and conscience. The cerebrum also plays major roles in sensation and movement. These functions are absent in a baby born without a cerebrum.
