Which of the following structures or regions is incorrectly paired with its function?
Options
- AHypothalamus : Production of releasing hormones and regulation of temperature, hunger and thirst
- BLimbic system : Consists of fibre tracts that interconnect different regions of brain; controls movement
- CMedulla oblongata : Controls respiration and cardiovascular reflexes
- DCorpus callosum : Band of fibers connecting left and right cerebral hemispheres
Correct answer
B. Limbic system : Consists of fibre tracts that interconnect different regions of brain; controls movement
Step-by-step solution
The limbic system is the part of the brain involved in our behavioural and emotional responses, especially when it comes to behaviours we need for survival: feeding, reproduction and caring for our young, and fight or flight responses . The cerebellum, which lies below the cerebrum just above the brain stem, coordinates the body's movements.
