What part of the brain controls basic life support functions?
The brain stem, which consists of the midbrain, pons, and medulla, ot medulla oblongata - which keeps you breathing and your heart beating in proper rhythm. If your heat needs to slow down the heart is influenced by via cranial nerve X, the Vagus nerve.
What contains autonomic center that regulate blood pressure?
The autonomic centers that regulate blood pressure are primarily located in the medulla oblongata of the brainstem. These centers control the sympathetic and parasympathetic responses that help maintain blood pressure within a normal range by adjusting heart rate, blood vessel diameter, and blood volume.
What center in the brain regulates the rate of the sinoatrial node?
The SA node (also called the "pacemaker") has an intrinsic rate which modified on a moment-to-moment basis by a variety of factors - neural, hormonal, and mechanical. The part of the brain which does sends the neural input is the brainstem via the Vagus nerve.
What part of the brain takes care of beating of the heart?
The heart has its own "nervous system" called "purkinje fibers", and so doesn't need the brain to beat ... but the thalamus [oldest part of the brain] does have "override" control via the autonomic nervous system (sympathetic by way of several unnamed nerves and parasympathetic by way of the Vagus nerve.
What is the auditory pathway for sound transduction to the brain?
When hair cells within the cochlea are stimulated by sound wave vibrations, they stimulate nearby sensory neurons of the spiral ganglion. The signals then get sent to the cochlear nerve and then to the vestibulocholear nerve (CN VII). These signals then get sent to the cochlear nucleus of the medulla oblongata which then get relayed to the inferior colliculus of the midbrain. These signals then get sent to the thalmus where they are relayed to the auditory cortex where specific areas process the pitch and frequency of the sound. The reflexatory response to sound is directed by the inferior colliculus (ie turn head toward sound) Actually, there are two errors in your answer. First: it is vestibulocochlear Second: it is cranial nerve VIII
How are midbrain and oblogata connected?
Midbrain and Oblogata are connected at least via the internet. P.S. - The Midbrain serves as the audiovisual highway of the brain connected to the Medulla Oblongata by the Pons. Oblogata is the creative activities on MySpace, Facebook, Oblogata etc.
What part of the brain controls basic life support functions?
The brain stem, which consists of the midbrain, pons, and medulla, ot medulla oblongata - which keeps you breathing and your heart beating in proper rhythm. If your heat needs to slow down the heart is influenced by via cranial nerve X, the Vagus nerve.
How does your brainstem help you breathe?
The brain stem is divided into three section known as: midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongatta. The medulla is referred to as the cardiac and respiratory centers of the body. It is in the medulla oblongatta that the basic control of the external respiration that occurs in the lungs. The medulla sends a signal via the phrenic nerve that control the involuntary portion of breathing. Breathing is a process that is unique in the body in that it is controlled both by voluntary and involuntary mechanisms.
How is the cerebellum physicaly connected to the brainstem?
The cerebellum connects to the brainstem via the pons, which are just above the medulla oblongota.
What contains autonomic center that regulate blood pressure?
The autonomic centers that regulate blood pressure are primarily located in the medulla oblongata of the brainstem. These centers control the sympathetic and parasympathetic responses that help maintain blood pressure within a normal range by adjusting heart rate, blood vessel diameter, and blood volume.
How does brainstem and spinal cord connect?
What a fascinating question. The answer is that there really is not part of the brain that connects with the spinal cord. The brain and the spinal cord are really the same thing only in different locations. They are both made of the same tissue, only arranged differently. The brain has more gray matter to do more processing, and the spinal cord has more white matter to transmit information quickly. In essence, they both have cognitive abilities because they both contain interneurons. Wow! Imagine that! Your spinal cord can think!
How Are Bones And Musceles Connected To Each Other?
Muscles are connected to bones via tendons.
What sea is the Persian gulf connected to?
It is connected to the Arabian Sea via the Gulf of Oman.
What is connected to the duodenum via the bile duct?
The gallbladder is connected to the intestine by the bile ducts.
How are computers connected?
Computers are connected via Internet,which is commmonly known as network of networks. In History,computers were connected via telnet and various other technologies. But Internet has become popular in very short time.
What is the ovary connected to after salpingectomy?
It is still connected to the uterus via the round ligament which is not severed post salpingectomy.
Where do the nerve impulses from the aortic baroreceptors go?
Nerve impulses from the aortic baroreceptors travel via the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X) to the brainstem, specifically to the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) in the medulla oblongata. This region processes the sensory information related to blood pressure and helps regulate autonomic responses, such as heart rate and vascular tone, to maintain homeostasis. The NTS then communicates with other brain regions to coordinate cardiovascular responses.
