The primary autonomic center of the brain is the Medulla Oblongata which is responsible for autonomic functions such as breathing, heart rate and blood pressure.
medulla oblongata
The autonomic nervous system is controlled by nerve centers in the spinal cord and brain stem. It is also influenced by the midbrain and cortex, and the cognitive centers affect reactions such as blushing.Regarding the actual brain structure that contains autonomic centers regulating heart rate, respiration and other visceral activities, the answer is the medulla.*The medulla also is mainly composed of fiber tracts.
The medulla is found in the cardiovascular center of the brain and controls receptors in the body to control homeostasis (physical conditions such as temperature within the body).
Polysynaptic
The medulla oblongata is the lower half of the brainstem. In discussions of neurology and similar contexts where no ambiguity will result, it is often referred to as simply the medulla. The medulla contains the cardiac, respiritory , vomiting and vasomotor centers and deals with autonomic functions, such as breathing, heart rate and blood pressure
The hypothalamus influences the autonomic centers in the brain stem and the spinal cord. In this way it regulates many Visceral activites such as heart rate, blood pressure respiratory rate and motility of digestive tract
No, the autonomic nervous system controls smooth muscle, such as organs and some glands.
Medulla (Oblongata)(part of the brain stem) contains an autonomic reflex center involved in maintaining homeostasis of important visceral organs. It contains several centers: 1. The cardiac center adjusts force and rate of heart contraction. 2. The vasomotor center regulates blood pressure by acting on smooth muscle in the walls of peripheral arterioles. 3. The respiratory center controls the depth and rhythm of breathing.
