Verified step by step guidance

Begin by identifying the primary functions associated with each lobe of the brain. The brain is divided into four main lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital.

Understand that the occipital lobe is located at the back of the brain and is primarily responsible for processing visual information.

Recognize that the occipital lobe contains the primary visual cortex, which is crucial for interpreting visual stimuli, such as light, shapes, and colors.

Consider the roles of the other lobes: the frontal lobe is involved in decision making and problem solving, the parietal lobe processes sensory information, and the temporal lobe is key for auditory processing and memory.

Conclude that the occipital lobe is the correct answer, as it is specifically tasked with visual processing and color identification.
