Which part of the brain is responsible for autonomic motor functions such as respiration, blood pressure, and heart rate, as well as for regulating muscle tone. Multiple Choice A. Sensory component of the reticular formation B. Prefrontal cortex C. Motor component of the reticular formation D. Amygdala E. Hypothalamus Answer : C The motor component of the reticular formation communicates with the spinal cord and is responsible for regulating muscle tone (especially when the muscles are at rest). The motor component of the reticular formation also assists in autonomic motor functions, such as respiration, blood pressure, and heart rate, by working with the autonomic centers in the medulla and pons.

3 . Regions of the brain matching. Options - Limbic system, Cerebrum, Brainstem, None, all regions, - Higher brain functions - plays a role in emotional response - basic life functions such as breathing - involved in sensing the outside world and responds to stimuli - involved in involuntary control of body - involuntary actions such as emotion and refluxes - responsible for learning - organizes and moves muscles - connects body to rest of the brain
