Transcript

00:01 The question is what is the function of medulla ablongata or so simply called as medulla? it is a part of brain stem that is the lower part of your brain.

00:13 And mainly it is going to get involved in the important functions or the regulation of important functions like breathing, then respiration, digestion, then you are sneezing and coughing reflexes.

00:38 So these are some important function which are done by the medulla part of the brain.

00:46 Now amongst the given option, we need to select the correct one.

00:50 Let's see the options.

00:51 First option is it maintains homeostasis and it has regulation of pituitary gland and limbic system.

01:01 Now this is not a right answer because pituitary gland limbic system and homeostasis are part of thalamus.

01:06 So this is hypothalamus so this is not going to be done by the medulla region secretes variety of hormone no medulla is not going to secret the hormones it is going to form a kind of bridge it receives the nerve which forms a bridge between brain and spinal cord no it is going to coordinate between two cerebral hemispheres no cerebral hemispheres or cerebrum is the first or the largest part of the brain and since medulla is the smallest and the last part of the brain this is not going to form the function it is responsible for visual and auditory reflex again forebrain is going to do that not the hind brain or not the medulla part heart and respiratory rate now yes as we already saw here breathing and respiration is going to be regulated by this so yes the f forms the correct answer here further it is going to receive the sensory impulses and relate to the brain's different regions different regions so this is done by thalamus and not medulla.

02:10 Sleepback cycle by secretion of melatonin, penial gland, which is a part of midbrain, not medulla...
