Brain
The brain is the center of the nervous system in all vertebrate, and most invertebrate, animals. Some primitive animals such as cnidarian and echinoderm have a decentralized nervous system without a brain, while sponges lack any nervous system at all.... . It partially wraps around the corpus callosum
Corpus callosum
The corpus callosum is a structure of the mammalian brain in the longitudinal fissure that connects the left and right cerebral hemispheres. It also facilitates communication between the two hemispheres.... and is limited above by the cingulate sulcus

Also, executive control needed to suppress inappropriate unconscious priming
Priming (psychology)
Priming in psychology refers to a finding in which exposure to a stimulus at time 1 influences responding to a related stimulus at time 2. One theory of priming is that exposure at time 1 activates parts of particular representation or association in memory just before carrying out an action or task.... is known to involve the anterior cingulate gyrus.
