Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The reticular system is responsible for regulating consciousness and sleep-wake cycles. General anesthesia inhibits the reticular system, leading to unconsciousness in the patient. The basal nuclei, limbic system, and hypothalamus are not directly involved in regulating consciousness and are not affected by general anesthesia in the same way.
