Solution
Diencephalon is the posteroventral part of the forebrain.
In general, its roof is called epithalamus, the base is called hypothalamus and sides are called optic thalami.
The diencephalon relays sensory information between brain regions and controls many autonomic functions of the peripheral nervous system.
It links the structures of the endocrine system with the nervous system and closely works with the limbic system structures to generate and manage emotions.
