Hey friend here is your answer.......


The Hindbrain :

This is the posterior part of the brain and is located below the forebrain . It consists of the cerebellum, pons and medulla oblongata . the cerebellum smaller than the cerebrum and is located below it towards the back of the skull . the surface of the cerebellum as a large number of thinely spaced parallel grooves, unlike the irregular folds of the cerebrum . the cerebellum, too is made up of a large number of neurons .  The upper layer ,  while the white matter is buried deeper within the structure . A fourth ventricle, filled with cerebrospinal fluid, lies between the cerebellum and the upper part of the medulla oblongata it is connected to the third ventricle , through a thin duct.  The cerebellum coordinates our movements , both voluntary and involuntary . It maintains the bodies posture and balance, and helps us learn new movements .

the Pons lies just about the  medula oblongata . It  relays information from the fore brain to the cerebellum . It also helps control functions such as sleep, breathing, swallowing, bladder function, hearing, taste, eye moment, facial expressions,  facial sensation, balance and posture .

The medulla oblongata lies in front of the cerebellum, at a slightly lower level, and connects to the spinal cord . It controls involuntary actions, such as Heartbeat breathing, sneezing, coughing, swallowing, vomiting , movements of the alimentary canal and secretion by glands . The midbrain, pons and medulla oblongata together makes up the brain stem.
