These structures manage basic survival functions. The hindbrain, comprising the medulla oblongata, pons, and cerebellum, controls respiration and movement. The midbrain supports motor and sensory functions, while the diencephalon's thalamus and hypothalamus regulate emotions and behaviors.

The brain, part of the central nervous system along with the spinal cord, is divided into two hemispheres connected by the corpus callosum. The text also discusses brain plasticity and how studying brain damage, such as strokes, contributes to understanding brain function.
