medulla obligata
pons
mid brain
there is a forth known as the reticular formation... functions of each as well,
medulla oblonga: innate relfexes, eg. vommiting, coughing, sneezing
pons: reflexes
mid brain: visual
reticular formation: sleep and wake cycle
It located in the lowest portion of the brain. It is connected to the spinal cord below, and the pons above.
The base of the brain exits the cranial cavity through the foramen magnum and extends down to at least cervical vertebra number 1 (C1) and usually a portion of cervical vertebra number 2 (C2). The base of the brain is one of four sections of the brain and is called the brain stem. It consists of three parts; the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongatta.
The brain stem is the lower part of the brain that connects to the spinal cord and regulates basic bodily functions like breathing and heart rate. The cerebellum is located at the back of the brain and is responsible for coordinating movement, balance, and posture.
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.
The walls of the diencephalon form structures such as the thalamus, hypothalamus, and epithalamus. These structures are important for functions such as relaying sensory information, regulating hormones, and controlling sleep-wake cycles.
The main structures of the brain are the cerebrum (the fore brain), the cerebellum (the hind brain), the brain stem.
midbrains, pons.medulla
The spinal cord is attached to the brain stem located at the base of the brain. This stem is connected to the cerebellum.
The cranial nerves are located outside of the brain and skull. These nerves come right from the brain and brain stem.
The brain stem is the part that controls breathing, it is the stem that allows the respiratory system to work and help you breathe
The limbic system is located on top of the brain stem and buried under the cortex.
It is located above the spinal cord and below the thalamus of the brain. It is sometimes called the reptilian brain. It consists of the medulla, pons and the mid brain.
The brain stem (the medulla oblongata).
Death or permanent debilitation follows herniation of the brain stem.Such herniation will cause compression of those structures within the brain stem that control the most vital functions of the body (breathing, heart beat, consciousness).
The brain stem is made up of the midbrain, pons, and the medulla oblongata. The brain stem is located next to the cerebellum.
The brain has three sections on three different levels, from the top to the brain- stem, which form a unit.
the structures of the brain stem is composed of the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata.
