The part of the brainstem that houses the reflex centers for respiration and cardiovascular functioning is the medulla oblongata.
Of the brainstem.
Polysynaptic
Hypothalamus
medulla oblongata
The primary autonomic center of the brain is the Medulla Oblongata which is responsible for autonomic functions such as breathing, heart rate and blood pressure.
Most of the vital systems in our body are controlled in the brainstem.
The autonomic nervous system is controlled by nerve centers in the spinal cord and brain stem. It is also influenced by the midbrain and cortex, and the cognitive centers affect reactions such as blushing.Regarding the actual brain structure that contains autonomic centers regulating heart rate, respiration and other visceral activities, the answer is the medulla.*The medulla also is mainly composed of fiber tracts.
The part of the brain responsible for eating are appetite centers of the amygdala and hypothalamus. The licking reflex is seen only certain animals but the centers are located in the medulla oblongata in the lower brainstem.

The hypothalamus influences the autonomic centers in the brain stem and the spinal cord. In this way it regulates many Visceral activites such as heart rate, blood pressure respiratory rate and motility of digestive tract
The part of the brainstem that houses the reflex centers for respiration and cardiovascular functioning is the medulla oblongata.
The medulla oblongata is responsible for breathing as well as heart rate. It is located in the lower half of the brainstem, and is considered to be one of the oldest (earliest developed) brain areas. It is unconsciously controlled.

Of the brainstem.
This is called brainstem herniation and may result in coma or death due to pressure on the vital respiratory centers in the brainstem.
