What does the midbrain control?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

It is the part of the brain between the spinal column and the cerebral hemispheres. It consists of the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata.It controls many vital body function like breathing, blood circulation.

Answer 3

Midbrain/ Mesencephalon- the rostral part of the brain stem, which includes the tectum and tegmentum. It is involved in functions such as vision, hearing, eye movement, and body movement. The anterior part has the cerebral peduncle, which is a huge bundle of axons traveling from the cerebral cortex through the brain stem and these fibers (along with other structures) are important for voluntary motor function. It is part of the brainstem.

Answer 4

The midbrain is the smallest region of the brain that acts as a sort of relay station for auditory and visual information.

The midbrain controls many important functions such as the visual and auditory systems as well as eye movement. Portions of the midbrain called the red nucleus and the substantia nigra are involved in the control of body movement. The darkly pigmented substantia nigra contains a large number of dopamine-producing neurons are located. The degeneration of neurons in the substantia nigra is associated with Parkinson's disease.

Answer 5

The midbrain is involved in hearing, sight, sleeping, motor control, temperature regulation and alertness.

Answer 6

vision and hearing
