What 2 major brain areas are involved in the nervous control of breathing?
Medulla & pons
Is the pons involved in sleep?
Yes
Part of brain controls respiration?
The brain stem controls respiration. The medulla and pons are both involved in volume and rhythm control.
Is the midbrain part of the brainstem?
Yes, it is where the spine enters the brain and includes the medulla oblongata, the pons and the tegmentum. Parts of the basal ganglia are also present in the brain stem. Respiration and heart function is controlled by the medulla. The pons is the relay of motor system impulses from the body and brain through the cerebellum. The basal ganglia is involved in motor function initiation and the inhibition of unnecessary motor impulses.
Is the pons involved in sensory analysis?
Yes
Which part of the hindbrain is involved in sleep and arousal?
Non-sexual arousal (such as motor function) is centered in the brainstem.
What are pons?
Pons are located in front of the medulla and are involved in regulating body movement, attention, sleep, and alertness.
Which structure is involved in the segmental level of motor control?
Spinal cord.
What center is located in pons?
pneumotaxic pontine respirator group (PRG)
What coordinates involuntary rapid fine motor movement?
Pons
What coordinates involuntary rapid fine-motor movement?
Pons
What part of the brain controls movement?
Probably the best-known region of the brain associated with motor control (movement) is the primary motor cortex. The primary motor cortex is located in the precentral gyrus, just anterior to the central sulcus.However, the pre-motor areas of the frontal lobe, as well as the cerebellum are also very involved with motor control.
