sneezing, and swallowing. This part of the brain is a center for respiration and circulation.

Function of the brainstem?
it is responsible for vial life functions such as breathing heartbeat and blood pressure it is the most simple part of the human brain
What part of the brain regulates breathing heartbeat and blood pressure?
Pons & Mendulla Oblongata
What part of the brain controls your heart beat?
The adrenal medulla is the part of the brain responsible for the release of adrenaline, when the adrenaline is released into the blood, the SAN is stimulated to work faster and increase your heart rate, this happens when playing sport or during your fight or flight response. However, the heart is not controlled by your brain as it is a myogenic muscle (self-exciting) this means that if you were to remove the heart from a body it would continue to beat. The sino-atrial node is responsible for the excitation of the heart. :) Hope this helps. Steph :)
Suddenly hear heartbeat pulsing in right ear when you stand?
Low blood pressure
Does the attitude of an area affects the breathing rate?
Yes the altitude of the area does affect the breathing rate becaue the higher you go the lower the air pressure and the the lower you go the lower the air pressure.
What controls involuntary functions like heart rate and blood pressure?
Medulla Oblongata.
What controls involuntary systems?
The autonomic nervous system regulates the involuntary systems. An example of this is the Fight or Flight system. Your heart beat increases as well as your blood pressure.
What does the autonomic nervous system not control?
The autonomic nervous system controls the involuntary processes of the body (heart rate, blood pressure, involuntary breathing, parastalsis and intestinal movement, etc.). It does not control voluntary central nervous system functions, such as movement (motor control), sensation, and executive functions (thinking of something and then doing it).
What part of the brain controls swallowing?
Swallowing is controlled by the brainstem, specifically the medulla oblongata. This region coordinates movements of the muscles involved in swallowing to ensure that food and liquids are safely transported from the mouth to the esophagus.
What brain part controls the swallowing?
It is the medulla oblongata that controls swallowing. It also controls functions such as breathing and blood pressure. It is the lower portion of the brainstem.
The part of the brain that controls breathing?
medulla oblongata
Do the medulla controls automatic functions of the body including breathing rate and blood pressure?
true

The medulla controls automatic functions of the body including breathing rate and blood pressure?
Medulla
Is it true or false the medulla controls automatic functions of the body including breathing rate and blood pressure?
True
What are the function of medulla oblangata?
It controls involuntary activities like breathing, heart-beat, blood pressure, peristaltic movements of alimentary canal, etc. It also controls the centre of reflexes like coughing, sneezing, swallowing, secretion of saliva and vomiting.

Pons & Mendulla Oblongata
