The precentral gyrus is the posterior convolution of the frontal lobe. The function is to control voluntary muscle movements in the body.

The motor cortex sits just posterior of the central fissure in the frontal lobes whereas the somatosensory cortex sits next to the central fissure in the parietal lobes of the cerebral cortex?

Wrong. The motor cortex is the prominent gyrus that is ancterior to the central sulcus. The Somatosensory cortex is the prominent gyrus that is posterior to the central sulcus.


Part of brain that controls movements?

Probably the best-known region of the brain associated with motor control (movement) is the primary motor cortex. The primary motor cortex is located in the precentral gyrus, just anterior to the central sulcus.However, the pre-motor areas of the frontal lobe, as well as the cerebellum are also very involved with motor control.
