Solution

The correct option is C Hypothalamus
The overall function of the hypothalamus is the integration of body functions for the maintenance of homeostasis. The hypothalamus is the key brain site for integration of multiple biologic systems to maintain homeostasis. The three major systems controlled by the hypothalamus for maintenance of homeostasis are the autonomic nervous system, the neuroendocrine system, and the limbic system.
