Thalamus- sorts info going to and from the cerebral cortex, controls info from sensory receptors to the cerebrum

 

Hypothalamus- regulates body temp, blood pressure, hunger, thirst, and emotions; “biological clock”

 

Pituitary Gland- secretes hormones that influence other glands and body functions

 

Cranial Nerves

                Olfactory- registers smells and sends impulses to the brain
