How does damage to the medulla affect your mental processes and behavior?

It often kills the person, because the medulla pretty much controls several autonomic functions, like breathing, heart rate, etc. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, I am the first person in the world (to the best of my knowledge) to "connect the dots" beween the ability of regular upper cervical spinal adjustments (which help improve the function of one's medulla) and improving one's potential potential for success in ALL areas of their life. The medulla contains the Reticular Activating System which is directly involved with our ability to concentrate (to avoid distractions) as well as our ability to set and achieve goals (big or small), to visualize" any successful outcome, etc. So yes, damage to one's medulla (Brain STEM) can affect one;s mental processes - both our subconscious, automatic goa-striving mechanism as well as our conscious thought. The medulla is our brains "brain" and is responsible for our level of "awakeness"and alertness.

Does the circulatory system supply blood first to the cortex then the medulla or first to the medulla then the cortex?

Technically, it supplies both at the same time, however, you could argue that the common carotid artieries (the main vessels supplying your head) reach the medulla first. Mainly because the whole cortex takes longer to be vascularized, however, we are probably talking milliseconds here. Also, the medulla receives blood vessels from the vertebral arteries, which are a branch of the subclavian artery, which is a more direct root. Hope this helps!


Why is the part of the hair and part of the brain both called the medulla?

Because medulla means the middle or interior part of something. With regard to hair, the medulla of a piece of hair is the innermost layer of the hair shaft; with regard to the brain, the full term is the medulla oblongata, which is often shortened to just medulla when it's clear that the reference is to the brain, and I think the term is used in this instance to mean the first part of the brain, between the spinal cord and the rest of the brain.

What should I do if my broken generator is not functioning properly?

If these are not the problem, it is best to contact a professional technician for repair or maintenance. Attempting to fix it yourself could be dangerous and may cause further damage.
