Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The superior colliculi are responsible for receiving visual input from the lateral geniculate bodies and are involved in visual reflexes and the processing of visual information for eye movements. The substantia nigra and red nuclei are both involved in motor control. The cerebral peduncles are responsible for transmitting motor and sensory information between the brainstem and the cerebrum. The inferior colliculi receive auditory input.
