Since it is next to the temporal lobes they have some function in sensory input.
The lateral hypothalamus is known to be involved in regulating hunger and feeding behavior. It is also implicated in reward processing and motivation, as well as in the sleep-wake cycle and arousal. Damage to the lateral hypothalamus can lead to decreased food intake and ultimately weight loss.
The hypothalamus serves as a control center for regulating various bodily functions like hunger, thirst, body temperature, and sleep. It also plays a crucial role in the endocrine system by producing hormones that control the release of hormones from the pituitary gland. Additionally, the hypothalamus is involved in emotional and behavioral responses.
The amygdala and hypothalamus are involved in the emotional response to sadness, triggering the release of stress hormones like cortisol. The lacrimal glands produce tears in response to these emotional cues.
yes hypothalamus control sleep.As it contains the nuclie which are responsible for varity of functioning.
The floor of the hypothalamus is occupied by the median eminence, which is a key area for releasing hormones into the hypophyseal portal system. This system connects the hypothalamus with the pituitary gland, allowing for the regulation of various hormone levels in the body.
The limbic system, specifically the hypothalamus and amygdala, plays a key role in regulating emotions and drives such as rage, pleasure, hunger, and sex. These structures are involved in processing and integrating emotional and physiological responses, influencing behaviors related to survival and reproduction.

Since the hypothalamus is involved in thirst, it will have a part in the production of urine.
Ageing.
there are possibly two..most likely seems to be pointing to the optic chiasm (where the optic nerves running back to the lateral geniculate nucleus cross) or they could be referring to the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus which is a structure that is involved in processing light for circadian rhythms (biological clock).

There is the pituitary gland, kidneys and hypothalamus. The hypothalamus is part of the brain.
The hypothalamus is a small mass below the thalamus and forms floor and part of the lateral walls of the third ventricle.
