The cerebrum is just another name for the brain. The brain is made up of different sections that all have different functions. There are four main lobes, the frontal which is in charge of decision making, talking, and voluntary movement. There is also the parietal lobe which is the part of the brain that receives sensory input for touch and body position. The third lobe is called the temporal lobe which is mainly in charge of hearing. Then the fourth lobe is called the occipital lobe which is what helps us see everything. There is also a part of the brain called the brainstem which is what keeps us breathing and our hearts beating.
The cerebrum controls the higher processes and senses of the body.
The cerebrum is defined as a portion of the brain that occupies the upper part of the cranial cavity ( space formed inside the skull). The Function of the cerebrum is to store information of memory and furthermore utilize this information in reasoning processes. Also the cerebrum functions in helping to determine a person's personality and intelligence.
Consciousness is controlled by the cerebrum of our brain.

The cerebrum is largely responsible for interpreting your sensations (sight, hearing, touch, etc) and moving your muscles. It also is the seat of consciousness and where your personality arises from.
The Cerebrum: The cerebrum or cortex is the largest part of the human brain, associated with higher brain function such as thought and action. The cerebral cortex is divided into four sections, called "lobes": the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and temporal lobe.
The precentral gyrus is in the cerebrum and can be found in the frontal lob of the forebrain. Its function is to begin pyramidal nerve tracts.
