How does the medulla connect to the brain?
The medull oblongata is connected directly above the begining of the brain stem and below the pons, it is part of what is known as the lower brain. It also contains the heart control centre
What connects to the cerebrum and the spinal cord?
The spinal cord is attached to the brain stem located at the base of the brain. This stem is connected to the cerebellum.

What is The sequence of brain regions from the evolutionary oldest to newest?
The brain region that seems to have the oldest evolutionary history is the brain stem. The brain stem is located at the brain's base and is joined to the spinal cord. The brain stem contains the midbrain, pons and medulla oblongata.
Is the brain stem the base of the brain?
Yes, it is basically the base of the brain; it is where the brain starts. The brain stem extends from the spinal cord into the brain and is the oldest (most primitive) part of the brain. Over time, the brain has developed on top of the brain stem to come to what it is today (in modern humans).
