The correct answer is the prefrontal cortex. 

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) refers to a brain area that is located in the frontal lobe of the cerebral cortex . The PFC is known as the executive functioning area of the brain. It is involved in complex cognitive functions, planning, reasoning, forming judgments and expression of personality. The PFC is not fully matured during adolescence and is still undergoing development. The PFC fully develops around age 25 years.
