What are the three regions of the brain that use a homunculus?

Sensory pathways function to provide us with information about our environment. The four parts of the sensory pathway are receptors, sensory neurons, sensory tracts, and sensory areas of the brain.
What body region is controlled by the largest area of the motor cortex?
There is something called the Homunculus that illustrates which parts of the motor cortex control which region. It ends up looking like a C with the leg being the smallest part and the face especially the tongue being the largest.
