Answer:

FRONTAL LOBE

Explanation:

The frontal lobe can be located at the anterior part of the brain, extending back to a fissure known as the central sulcus. The frontal lobe functions and helps in coordination of reasoning, motor control, emotion, and language. It contains the motor cortex, which is involved in planning and coordinating movement; the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for higher-level cognitive functioning; and Broca’s area, which is essential for language production.

Let say for example Kyle is my friend who was a victim of an accident.

Before the accident, he was industrious and well liked BUT after the accident, he is profane, impetuous, and incapable of working toward a goal.

Such changes in personality would be consistent with loss of impulse control which is a significant frontal lobe function. With connections between the planning functions of the frontal lobe and the emotional processes of the limbic system severed, Kyle had difficulty controlling his emotional impulses, attitudes and abiiity of working towards his goals.
