BRAIN STEM

The brain stem operates automatically to control vital body functions such as breathing and blood pressure. It is a eight centimeter long stalk of nerve cells and fibres that joins the upper part of the spinal cord with the brain. The medulla oblongata is the lowest part of the brain stem and serves as the site of connection between the brain and the spinal cord. The pons is located in the brainstem, vertically between the midbrain and the medulla oblongata, and sagittally between the cerebellum and the pituitary gland. It is responsible for serving as a bridge between the cerebrum, the cerebellum, and the medulla oblongata. The brain stem is an extension of the spinal cord and acts as a highway for messages traveling from other parts of the brain to the spinal cord. The spinal cord and the brain form the central nervous system (CNS), which controls all of the body's basic functions such as breathing, the rate of your heart beat, and body temperature.
