What is its function |
Medulla oblongata
The medulla oblongata controls autonomic functions, and connects the higher levels of the brain to the spinal cord. It is also responsible for regulating several basic functions of the autonomic nervous system which include: Respiration – chemoreceptors Cardiac center – sympathetic, parasympathetic nervous system Vasomotor center – baroreceptors Reflex centers of vomiting, coughing, sneezing, and swallowing. These reflexes can be classified as "bulbar reflexes", including the, the pharyngeal reflex, the swallowing reflex (also known as the palatal reflex), and the masseter reflex. |
