The folds, or sulci, of the cerebrum allows the cerebral cortex to have more surface area and therefore more brain cells, or neurons, that make up the brains mass. Cognitive function seems to be related to the surface area of the cerebrum. Convolutions increase the surface area. Animals with less convoluted cerebra have lower intelligence than those with more. As an example, 'possum brains are nearly smooth.

Why is the cerebral cortex highly folded?
So your brain can hold more memory and processing space via an increase in [contained] surface area.

What will happen if your cerebrum is damage why?
As with any injury it depends on the extent of the damage. Your cerebrum is a part of your brain so the consequences could be severe.
