Zoology - Neural Control and Coordination Question with Solution | TestHub
Read the following matches carefully:
Corpus callosum: Connects both right and left cerebellar hemispheres.
Limbic system: Regulation of sexual behaviour and emotions with the hypothalamus.
Association areas: Responsible for intersensory associations, memory and communication.
Medulla oblongata: Controls motivation and urge for eating and drinking.
How many of the above matches is/are incorrect?
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
Corpus callosum in forebrain connects both right and left cerebral hemispheres. The association areas are responsible for performing complex functions like intersensory associations, memory and communication. Hunger (urge for eating and drinking), regulation of sexual behaviour and emotions are controlled by the hypothalamus and amygdala of the limbic system. The medulla oblongata regulates several functions of the autonomic nervous system, such as respiration, cardiac function, vasodilation and reflexes like vomiting, coughing, sneezing and swallowing.
