The amygdala controls the sensation of pleasure, punishment, or sexual arousal. The hippocampus has a major role in learning and memory. The hypothalamus is considered to be a link structure between the nervous and the endocrine system; its main function is to maintain the homeostasis of the body. The thalamus has several functions, such as relaying of sensory signals, including motor signals, to the cerebral cortex and the regulation of consciousness, sleep, and alertness.

About Coordination and Control
Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
