The answer is the fourth one (d): Parietal lobe.

Explanation for each option:

a.) Occipital lobe: This part of the brain is primarily responsible for processing visual information. It is not involved in processing touch.

b.) Frontal lobe: This lobe is associated with higher cognitive functions such as decision making, problem-solving, and controlling behavior and emotions. It is not primarily responsible for processing touch.

c.) Temporal lobe: This lobe is mainly involved in processing auditory information and is also important for memory and language. It does not process touch.

d.) Parietal lobe: This lobe is responsible for processing sensory information related to touch, temperature, and pain. It contains the somatosensory cortex, which is specifically involved in processing tactile information.

In summary, the parietal lobe is the part of the brain that processes information about touch.
