The hindbrain, rhombencephalon (shaped like a rhombus) is a developmental categorization of portions of the central nervous system in vertebrates. It includes the medulla, pons, and cerebellum. Together they support vital bodily processes. [1]

2023年9月22日 · The hindbrain (rhombencephalon) is the control center for our body’s vital automatic functions, including breathing, heart rate, blood pressure, sleep, and balance. Located at the base of the brain where it connects to the spinal cord, this evolutionarily ancient structure ensures our survival by managing unconscious bodily processes.

2024年1月17日 · The forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain are the three main brain divisions. The forebrain handles higher cognitive functions, the midbrain controls motor movement and sensory processing, and the hindbrain manages coordination, balance, and autonomic functions like breathing and heart rate.

Hindbrain, region of the developing vertebrate brain that is composed of the medulla oblongata, the pons, and the cerebellum. The hindbrain coordinates functions that are fundamental to survival, including respiratory rhythm, motor activity, sleep, and wakefulness.

The hindbrain (developmentally derived from the rhombencephalon) is one of the three major regions of our brains, located at the lower back part of the brain. It includes most of the brainstem and a dense coral-shaped structure called the cerebellum.

2019年9月17日 · The hindbrain is the brain’s rearmost region. It’s a structure formed by different sub-structures in charge of several essential functions. Throughout this article, we’ll show you the structure, differentiation process, and functions of this part of the brain.

2024年9月3日 · There are three major brain divisions, with each performing specific functions. The major divisions of the brain are the forebrain (or prosencephalon), midbrain (mesencephalon), and hindbrain (rhombencephalon). The forebrain is by far the largest brain division.

The hindbrain refers to a significant brain region that is connected to the midbrain and spinal cord, consisting of segments like rhombomeres and the cerebellum, playing a crucial role in motor control and coordination.

2025年2月25日 · The hindbrain includes the upper part of the spinal cord, the brain stem, and a wrinkled ball of tissue called the cerebellum. The hindbrain controls the body’s vital functions such as respiration and heart rate.

2024年9月30日 · The hindbrain is composed of three main structures: the cerebellum, pons, and medulla oblongata. Let’s break them down, shall we? First up, we have the cerebellum, or “little brain.”
