ventral part of the midbrain, near the pons
The cerebellum works with the brainstem through means of the cerebellar peduncles. These bundles of nerve fibers are connected to the medulla oblongata by a pair of inferior peduncles, middle peduncles connect to the pons and superior peduncles connect to the midbrain. The main function of the cerebellum is mainly assessing certain types of sensory input (such as touch) and assisting in the monitoring of muscle movement. Other functions it may be linked to are spacial perception, timekeeping (such as judging elapsed time; predicting where the location of a moving object in a few seconds), distinguishing between two similar sounding words/tones, planning and scheduling tasks, controlling emotions/ impulse and maintaining attention.
The part of the brainstem that houses the reflex centers for respiration and cardiovascular functioning is the medulla oblongata.
The lower part of the brain that contains centers more vital to life is the brainstem. It includes important structures such as the medulla oblongata, which controls essential functions like breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure. Additionally, the brainstem controls other vital activities such as swallowing, digestion, and body temperature regulation.
medulla
cerebral aqueduct which traversing the midbrain divides it into two main parts:Tectum (smaller dorsal part), which consists of = 2 superior and 2 inferior colliculi2 cerebral peduncles (larger ventral part), which consist of = crus cerebri + substantia nigra + tegmentum
No.
Cerebral peduncles are responsible for connecting the cerebrum to the rest of the brain and spinal cord. They contain fiber tracts that carry motor signals from the cerebral cortex to the spinal cord and brainstem. Additionally, they are involved in coordinating voluntary movement and posture.
No single part of the brain is responsible for consciousness. The brainstem, diencephalon, and cerebral hemispheres are all involved in consciousness.
The cerebrum.
The cerebellum works with the brainstem through means of the cerebellar peduncles. These bundles of nerve fibers are connected to the medulla oblongata by a pair of inferior peduncles, middle peduncles connect to the pons and superior peduncles connect to the midbrain. The main function of the cerebellum is mainly assessing certain types of sensory input (such as touch) and assisting in the monitoring of muscle movement.

Inside the brainstem
The middle part of the brain is called the brainstem. It contains the pons, the medulla and the midbrain. The other parts of the brain are the cerebellum and the cerebrum.
medulla
The brainstem...
Cerebral is an adjective.
BRAINSTEM The medulla (located in the lower half of the brainstem).
The part of the brainstem that houses the reflex centers for respiration and cardiovascular functioning is the medulla oblongata.
