Best Answer

The brainstem sits between large organs -- the brain (including cerebrum and cerebellum) and spinal cord -- and is directly connected to them. The three segments of the brainstem (the midbrain, pons, and medulla) also give rise to most of the twelve cranial nerves (excluding cranial nerves I, II, and arguably XI).
