Solution

Hypothalamus

The hypothalamus responds to a variety of signals from the internal and external environment including body temperature, hunger, feelings of being full up after eating, blood pressure and levels of hormones in the circulation.

Hypothalamus is a part of diencephalon. The diencephalon is made up of four main components: the thalamus, the subthalamus, the hypothalamus, and the epithalamus.
