• B. $\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Structure}& \text{Location}& \text{Function}\\ & \text{Cerebellum}& \text{Midbrain}& \text{Controls respiration and gastric secrection}\end{array}$
• C. $\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Structure}& \text{Location}& \text{Function}\\ & \text{Hypothalamus}& \text{Forebrain}& \text{Controls body temperature, urge for eating and drinking}\end{array}$
• D. $\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Structure}& \text{Location}& \text{Function}\\ & \text{Blind spot}& \text{Place of departure of optic nerve from eye}& \text{Rods and cones are present, but inactive}\end{array}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Structure}& \text{Location}& \text{Function}\\ & \text{Hypothalamus}& \text{Forebrain}& \text{Controls body temperature, urge for eating and drinking}\end{array}$

Eustachian tube : Part of middle ear.
Cerebellum : Part of hindbrain.
Blind spot : Photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) are absent.
