The connects the brain and the spinal cord. cerebellum corpus callosum medulla pons

I believe the correct answer is the medulla.

The Nervous system is divided into the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS). The central nervous system contains the brain (encephalon) and the spinal cord. The central nervous system is linked to the spinal cord through a bulging portion called the medulla. The brain is further divided into the cerebrum and the cerebellum. The peripheral nervous system is divided into the autonomous nervous system (ANS) and the Somatic Nervous System (SNS). The autonomous nervous system functions to control involuntary functions in the body that includes the heart beat and breathing. The somatic nervous system on the other hand controls everything else that is involuntary.

It is located just superior to the medulla where the brain connects with the spinal cord and controls voluntary movements that include speech, posture, smooth muscular activity and balance. It is just a small part of the brain and accounts for only 10% of the weight of the brain.

This is a bridge that functions as a link between the left and right hemispheres of the cerebrum. It is made up of tough connective tissue that protects nerves and blood vessels. It also anchors the 2 hemispheres together and assists the brain in coordination and solving complex problems.

This is also known as the medulla oblangata and it connects the brain to the spinal cord. It also controls involuntary functions such as the heart beat and breathing. On its superior surface, it has the pons.

They function to convey messages from the cortex of the bigger cerebrum to the cerebellum. They are on top of the bulging brain stem called the medulla oblangata. They also control the circadian rhythm that controls breathing and dreaming. People with problems sleeping all have the involvement of the pons being impaired.
