What part of the brain controls appetite and sleep patterns?
hypothalamus
What regulates body temperature sleep and appetite?
Hypothalamus.
What gland controls influences the sleep-wakefulness cycle?
It would be an overstatement that a gland is responsible for sleep, however, the pineal gland does have some connection to sleep. It secretes a hormone called melatonin which contributes to sleepiness.
What does hypothalamus gland do?
The hypothalamus links the nervous system to the endocrine system, contains the pituitary gland (which produces hormones), controls and secretes some hormones, and controls body temperature, hunger, thirst, tiredness, sleep, and the circadian cycle.
What part of the brain controls wakefulness?
hypothalamus - a region in the upper part of the brainstem that acts as a relay to the pituitary gland - it controls body temperature, circadian cycles, sleep, moods, hormonal body processes, hunger, and thirst. The hypothalamus is part of the limbic system and works with the pituitary gland.
What part of the brain controls sleep temperature and pituitary gland?
hypothalamus
What is the hormone that tells your body that you have had enough to eat?
Serotonin which Controls mood, appetite, and sleep. Ghrelin which stimulates appetite, secretion of growth hormone from anterior pituitary gland Leptin which causes decrease of appetite and increase of metabolism.

What makes your bodies grow?
There is a gland in your brain, right behind the optic nerve. That gland controls puberty stages and how your body grows.
What is the organ that controls all the other organs?
The endocrine system controls other organs. The pituitary gland in the brain controls growth, blood pressure, pain relief, water retention, metabolism of food, temperature regulation, and sex organ functions. Another gland in the brain that is part of the same system is the pineal gland. It regulates melatonin and sleep. The thyroid gland is in your throat and controls metabolism by stimulating oxygen in the blood, protein synthesis and bone contruction. Other endocrine glands are the parathyroid, ovaries, testes, pancreas, and adrenal glands.
What brain lobe controls sleep?
Frontal - as it contains the primary motor cortex where primary motor functions (such as sleep) are 'produced/performed'.
What is the job of hypothalamus?
Hypothalamus has many functions. Some are described belowIt controls the autonomic nervous system and also works in coordination with limbic system to regulate emotional and behavioural patterns, regulate eating and drinking, controls body temperature etc.It controls pituitary gland secretion.Hypothalamus maintains blood pressure, body temperature, body fluid and electrolyte balance and body weight.
