What contains autonomic centers regulating blood pressure heart rate and respiratory rhythm?
The medulla contains the cardiac, respiratory, vomiting, and vasomotor centers and regulates autonomic, involuntary functions such as breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure.

Which of the following brain structures contains centers that regulate heart rate respiratory rate coughing and sneezing?
Medulla oblongata It is only about 3cm long, but the medulla is an indispensable nerve tract which contains the control centres for our autonomic vital functions – heart rate, blood pressure, breathing – and many involuntary reflexes such as swallowing and sneezing.
What part of the brainstem regulates respiration?
The respiratory center is located in the medulla oblongata and is involved in the minute-to-minute control of breathing.
Which area of the brain contains the autonomic centers that regulate blood pressure and respiratory rhythm such as coughing and sneezing centers?
Human Anatomy
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Contains autonomic centers, which regulate blood pressure and respiratory rhythm, as well as coughing and sneezing centers | Medulla oblongata |
| Large fiber tract connection the cerebral hemispheres | Corpus callosum |
| Connects the 3rd and 4th ventricles | Cerebral aquaduct |
| Encloses the 3rd ventricle | Thalamus |
What does the cerebrum control?
The largest part of the brain, the cerebrum initiates and coordinates movement and regulates temperature. Other areas of the cerebrum enable speech, judgment, thinking and reasoning, problem-solving, emotions and learning. Other functions relate to vision, hearing, touch and other senses.
What contains reflex centers with vision and hearing?
The corpora quadrigemina are reflex centers involving vision and hearing. It consists of groups of nerve cells-grey matter scattered in white matter. It basically connects the forebrain and the hind brain. It has four corpora quadrigemina which are the reflex centres of eye movement and auditory responses.
What carries impulses between the periphery and CNS?
The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. Cranial nerves, spinal nerves, and ganglia make up the peripheral nervous system. The afferent division of the peripheral nervous system carries impulses to the CNS; the efferent division carries impulses away from the CNS.
Which brain region contains centers for processing sensory information?
The parietal lobe is separated from the occipital lobe by the parieto-occipital sulcus and is behind the central sulcus. It is responsible for processing sensory information and contains the somatosensory cortex.
What are the respiratory centers?
The respiratory center is located in the medulla oblongata and pons, in the brainstem. The respiratory center is made up of three major respiratory groups of neurons, two in the medulla and one in the pons. In the medulla they are the dorsal respiratory group, and the ventral respiratory group.
What are respiratory control centers?
medulla
respiratory control centers: The medulla which sends signals to the muscles involved in breathing, and the pons which controls the rate of breathing.
