Solution

The correct option is A Hypothalamus

Hypothalamus, which is located in the forebrain controls body temperature, growth and sexual behaviour. It is an important link between neural and endocrine system.
Medulla oblongata, which is located in the hindbrain, controls respiration, cardiovascular reflexes and gastric secretions.
Cerebellum, also part of the hindbrain, controls the rapid muscular activities, such as running, talking.
Cerebrum is located in the forebrain and consisting of two hemispheres, left and right, separated by a fissure. It is responsible for the integration of complex sensory and neural functions and the initiation and coordination of voluntary activity in the body.
