- Some scientists divide the brain into three parts.
I. Hind Brain.
1. Medulla Oblangata
* Heartrate, breathing, and blood pressure.
2. Pons
* Connects the hind brain, mid brain, and fore brain together
* Involved in facial expressions.
3. Cerebellum
* Located in the back of our head- means little brain.
* Coordinated muscle movement; like tracking a target.
II. Mid Brain
1. Coordinates simple movements with sensory information
2. Contains the Reticular Formation: arousal and ability to focus attention.
