Model Answer

B) Cerebellum

The cerebellum, a part of the hind-brain, is responsible for precision of voluntary actions and maintaining posture and balance of the body.

Source: Chapter 6, Section 6.1.2 Human Brain

Explanation

The textbook explicitly states: "a part of the hind-brain called the cerebellum… is responsible for precision of voluntary actions and maintaining the posture and balance of the body." Do not confuse cerebellum (precision/balance) with cerebrum/fore-brain (thinking/voluntary initiation) or medulla (involuntary actions like blood pressure, vomiting).
