The consciousness system is a wide spread yet organized system of neurons located in the brainstem, diencephalon, and cerebral hemispheres. It also includes the reticular formation, hypothalamus, basal forebrain, and thalamus.
The cerebrum
Consciousness is controlled by the cerebrum of our brain.
No single part of the brain is responsible for consciousness. The brainstem, diencephalon, and cerebral hemispheres are all involved in consciousness.
Some unanswered questions about consciousness include: What is the exact nature of consciousness? How does consciousness arise from the brain's neural activity? Can consciousness exist independently of the physical brain?

Humans lose consciousness when the oxygen supply to the brain gets low.

Consciousness is a complex phenomenon and is not localized to one specific area of the brain. It is believed to involve widespread neural activity and interactions across various regions of the brain, including the prefrontal cortex, parietal cortex, and thalamus. The exact mechanisms of consciousness and its neural correlates are still not fully understood.
Syncope is a brief loss of consciousness due to lack of oxygen.SyncopeSyncope - Temporary loss of consciousness caused by a lack of blood supply to the brain.
