It coordinates different activities such as listening to the sound, seeing the visuals infront of you, smelling the surroundings, tasting the food that you eat and many more. It has different components which try to strike a balance in the body by performing opposing functions such as flight or fight actions and calming actions are all instructed by the brain.
