basal nuclei.
The sympathetic nervous system
has ganglia near the spinal cord.
This portion of the brain stem has vital nuclei for respiration and the cardiovascular system:
medulla oblongata.
Which of the following is true of cranial nerves?
they may carry motor, sensory, or both kinds of information.
The role of the somatic sensory association area is
understanding and interpreting touch information.
How does somatic sensory information from your face get to your brain?
via cranial nerves to brain stem nuclei
