#hindbrain__rhombencephalon the posterior portion of the brain including cerebellum and pons and medulla oblongata
supertype: neural_structure a structure that is part of the nervous system
subtype: metencephalon the part of the hindbrain that develops into the pons and the cerebellum
part of: encephalon
part: cerebellum a major division of the vertebrate brain; situated above the medulla oblongata and beneath the cerebrum in humans
part: cerebellar_artery__arteria_cerebelli__arteriacerebelli an artery that supplies the cerebellum
part: paleocerebellum the anterior lobe of the cerebellum which was one of the earliest parts of the hindbrain to develop in mammals
part: medulla_oblongata__medullaoblongata__medulla lower or hindmost part of the brain; continuous with spinal cord; (`bulb' is an old term for medulla oblongata); "the medulla oblongata is the most vital part of the brain because it contains centers controlling breathing and heart functioning"
part: respiratory_center__respiratorycenter the center in the medulla oblongata and pons that integrates sensory information about the level of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood and determines the signals to be sent to the respiratory muscles
part: myelencephalon the posterior part of the hindbrain in developing vertebrates; forms the medulla oblongata in adults
part: pons_Varolii__pons a band of nerve fibers linking the medulla oblongata and the cerebellum with the midbrain
part: respiratory_center__respiratorycenter the center in the medulla oblongata and pons that integrates sensory information about the level of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood and determines the signals to be sent to the respiratory muscles
