Which part of the midbrain is responsible for hearing and visual reflexes?

Cerebrum That is a pretty broad area, true that the occipital lobe of the cerebrum is our vision center and the temporarl lobe houses our auditory center, neither of these necessarily controls our reflexes of these senses. I believe the answer that they were looking for is the corpora quadrigemina, part of the midbrain that contains the superior colliculi and the inferioror colliculi, which help us react to/analyze visual and auditory sensations that we encounter

∙ 12y agoThe Corpa Quadrigemina contains the visual and auditory reflex centers (largest)
the Superior Colliculi contains visual reflex centers, and coordinates movements of the head and eye
the Inferior colliculi contains auditory reflex centers

superior is visual; inferior is auditory.

What part of the brain coordinates visual and auditory reflexes?
They are both located in the corpora quadrigemina.
What does the midbrain control?
The midbrain controls functions, such as the movement and reflexes of the eyes, hearing, body temperature, and motor control. Other parts of the brain are the cerebellum, cerebrum, and brainstem.
What is the corpora quadrigemina?
Raises four domelike protrusions on the dorsal mid-brain surface. The superior pair, the superior colliculus are visual reflex centers that coordinate head and eye movements when visually following a moving object even if not consciously knowing you are doing so. The inferior pair, the inferior colliculusare part of auditory relay from hearing receptors of the ear to the sensory cortex. They also act in reflexive responses to sound, such as the startle reflex which causes you to turn your head toward an unexpected noise.
Which structures are located within the brain stem?
medulla obligata pons mid brain there is a forth known as the reticular formation... functions of each as well, medulla oblonga: innate relfexes, eg. vommiting, coughing, sneezing pons: reflexes mid brain: visual reticular formation: sleep and wake cycle
What lobe has the sensory function of hearing tasting and smelling?
Temporal Lobe governs hearing, smell, learning, memory, emotional behavior, and visual recognition.
Mesencephalon - visual reflexes?
Not sure what you are asking... but.... part of the brain stem...the midbrain contains reflex centers for head, eye and body movements in response to visual and auditory stimuli. For example, reflexively turning the head to enable better vision or better hearing is activated by the midbrain
Conducts impulses between brain parts and controls some eye reflexes?
The structure responsible for conducting impulses between brain parts and controlling some eye reflexes is the midbrain. It plays a crucial role in coordinating basic movements and visual and auditory processing.
What is the function of midbraine?
whats the function of the spinalthe midbrain is relay center for audio and visual information. The midbrain is also responsible for movement of the head.Controls many functions such as visual and auditory systems, as well as eye movements.
Which part of the brain contains reflex centers for vision and audition?
The occipital lobe is responsible for mostly registering visual memories and images because it is in the back of the brain. The temporal lobe mostly retains audible memories and is also responsible for triggering and registering sound. the temporal lobe of the brain is near the ear area.
What part of the brain coordinates visual and auditory reflexes?
They are both located in the corpora quadrigemina.

If vision is to visual then hearing is to what?
audio If vision is to visual then hearing is to sound or audio.
Function of midbrain?
Hind brain contains medulla that controls the vital activities like vomitting,unconsiousness,blood pressure in our body, also, it contains cerebellum that helps to maintain the straight posture and balance of the body .It is responsible for precision of voluntary actions in our body.mid brain contains pituitary gland that secretes growth harmone and is responsible for dwarfness and gaintness.

What is the function of the corpus quadrigemina in the sheep brain?
Relay for visual and auditory reflexes
If Vision is to visual then hearing is to?
Auditory
