the medulla oblongata which is in the brain
No. The medulla controls heart rate, along with breathing and digestion.
the medulla
the brain stem is what controlls the heart rate, respiration and such.
The brainstem has a part named the medulla oblongata, which controls the natural, life necessary functions, such as heart beat. This is commonly believed to be the only part of the brain that perople need to survive.
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 :)
Medulls Oblongata
No. The medulla controls heart rate, along with breathing and digestion.
The nervous system controls heart and respiratory rates.
The brain stem controls these functions

your heart gets controls by your nervous system
The Vagus nerve is the nerve that acts to lower the heart rate. It is part of the parasympathetic nervous system.
