Which of these acts as a relay center connecting hindbrain with the forebrain?
Correct answer: B. Midbrain
- A. Forebrain
- B. Midbrain
- C. Hindbrain
- D. Limbic system
Explanation
Option B is correct since the midbrain contains the reticular formation, which is a relay center connecting the hindbrain with the forebrain. The reticular formation is very important in screening the input information before it reaches higher brain centers.

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.
