Reasoning and understanding is performed by the Pre-frontal cortex which is the part of the frontal lobe where is the other major part that deals with the implementing and planning approaches performed by the dIPFC.

Prefrontal cortex which is the part of the frontal lobe is not present in lizards and frogs, as they have limbic system which is phylogenitcaly very primitive.
