Functions of Pons, Hypothalamus, Medulla and Cerebellum
-
Match List I with List II regarding parts of the brain and their functions.
Pick the matching item from Column II for each row.
Column I
- A. Pons
- B. Hypothalamus
- C. Medulla
- D. Cerebellum
Column II
- I. Provides additional space for neurons, regulates posture and balance.
- II. Controls respiration and gastric secretions.
- III. Connects different regions of the brain.
- IV. Neuro secretory cells
Correct answer: A → III, B → IV, C → II, D → I
Pons – consists of fibre tracts that interconnect different regions of the brain Hypothalamus – contains several groups of neurosecretory cells that secrete hypothalamic hormones Medulla – contains centres that control respiration and gastric secretions Cerebellum – convoluted surface provides additional space for neurons; regulates posture and balance Correct match: A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I.
Cerebral Hemispheres and Brain Stem Anatomy
-
Given below are two statements: Statement I: The cerebral hemispheres are connected by nerve tract known as corpus callosum. Statement II: The brain stem consists of the medulla oblongata, pons and cerebrum. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:Statement I is correct: the two cerebral hemispheres are connected by a tract of nerve fibres called the corpus callosum. Statement II is incorrect: the brain stem consists of the midbrain, pons and medulla oblongata; the cerebrum is part of the forebrain and does not form the brain stem. So Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
