The correct option is B False
The cerebellum is divided into two halves: the outer grey cortex and the inner white medulla.
It is primarily in charge of coordinating and maintaining bodily equilibrium during walking, running, cycling, and swimming, as well as precision control of voluntary motions.
The medulla oblongata is a tail-like structure that links the brain to the spinal cord near the base of the brain. It continues to spinal cord.
It transmits messages from the brain to the rest of the body for vital activities such as breathing, circulation, swallowing, and digesting.
Final answer: The given statement is false.
