Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mammillary bodies are part of the limbic system and are involved in the processing of recognition memory. They are known to play a role in emotional responses to odors, among other functions, but they do not directly influence breast milk production, produce reproductive hormones, influence the onset of puberty, or are located in the thalamus.
