Autonomic Nervous System
Relay station for nerves traveling to other areas of the
Pons
brain (involved in regulation of respiration)
Drugs that depress the Depress RESPIRATION
Medulla
Drugs that stimulate the Stimulate RESPIRATION
Medulla
Part of the brainstem that controls vital life-sustaining
Medulla oblongata functions such as heartbeat, breathing, blood pressure,
and digestion.
Contains centers for muscle coordination,equilibrium
Cerebellum and muscle tone to coordinate movement of voluntary
muscles
a nerve network in the brainstem that plays an important
Reticular Formation role in controlling arousal. Contains Excitatory and
inhibitory fibers.
Collection of neurons which form a specific neural
Limbic System pathway. Involved with emotional and behavioral
responses.
-Passes from brain into vertebral canal
-carries motor impulses
