Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The hypothalamus plays a critical role in emotion regulation and behavioral patterns, including aggression, hunger, thirst, and sexual response.

Answer: E
 The cerebral cortex is the outermost layer of the brain and is involved in high-level functions such as thought, memory, perception, and language expression. It also plays a role in emotion regulation and behavioral control.

Additional information:

- The cerebellum is mainly involved in coordinating voluntary movement and balance, but it also appears to play a role in cognitive and emotional processing. 
- The brain stem is the region that connects the brain to the spinal cord and is involved in basic life-sustaining functions such as breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure. 
- The basal nuclei (or basal ganglia) are a group of interconnected structures located deep within the cerebral hemispheres. They are involved in motor control and learning and may also contribute to emotion regulation and cognition.
