The medulla oblongata, or simply medulla is part of the brain that is continuous with the spinal cord.
Brain:
- The brain is a sophisticated organ that manages every bodily function as well as cognition, memory, emotion, touch, motor skills, vision, respiration, temperature, and hunger.
- The central nervous system, or CNS, is made up of the spinal cord that emerges from the brain.
Medulla oblongata:
- The bottom portion of the brainstem is made up of a long, stem-like structure called the medulla oblongata, or just the medulla.
- The cerebellum is somewhat inferior and anterior to it.
- It is a cone-shaped mass of neurons that control autonomic (involuntary) processes including vomiting and sneezing.
- The medulla controls the autonomic functions of breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure as well as the sleep-wake cycle since it houses the cardiac, respiratory, vomiting, and vasomotor centers.
Spinal cord:
- The spinal cord is a lengthy band of tissue that resembles a tube.
- Your spinal cord relays nerve messages back and forth from your brain to your body.
- You can experience feelings and move your body thanks to these nerve transmissions.
- Any spinal cord injury might impair your ability to move or perform other functions.
- Specifically, the spinal cord's role is to transmit nerve impulses from the motor cortex to the body and from the afferent fibers of sensory neurons to the sensory brain.
- Additionally, it serves as a hub for coordinating several reflexes and has reflex arcs that have autonomous control over reflexes.
- The spinal interneuron clusters that make up the neural circuits known as central pattern generators are also found there.
