FOREBRAIN. Receives, integrates sensory information from nose, eyes, and ears; in land-dwelling vertebrates, contains the highest integrating centers MIDBRAIN. Coordinates reflex responses to sight, sounds HINDBRAIN. Reflex control of respiration, blood circulation, other basic tasks; in complex vertebrates, coordination of sensory input, motor dexterity, and possibly mental dexterity (start of spinal cord) Fig. 35. 4 a, p. 590

III. Very Basic Divisions of Brain A. Hindbrain: Brain stem in humans. 1. Medulla oblongata: respiration, circulation. 2. Cerebellum: Coordinates inputs; necessary for coordination and motor skills. 3. Pons: Bridge between hindbrain and midbrain.
