Why is the brain stem called the primitive part of the brain?
The brain stem stem could be called the "primitive part of the brain" because it was the first brain structure to evolve, and is responsible for our basic vital functions like breathing and heartbeat.
What area includes the thalamus hypothalamus and epithalamus?
These are all part of the brain stem called the thalamus. The thalamus forms the floor of the third ventricle and along with the pons and the medulla oblongata forms the brain stem.

The whole structure is called the brain stem. The brain stem is divided up into three sections: midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata. Regulation of vital functions occurs in your medulla oblongata. The medulla oblongata is sometimes referred to as the vital center.
What area includes the thalamus hypothalamus and epithalamus?

What are branches within the brain called?
