उत्तर
- The medulla oblongata is a part of the brain stem.
- It controls involuntary vital functions like heartbeat, respiration, vasomotor activities, and peristalsis.
- It also controls non-vital reflex activities like coughing, sneezing, swallowing, vomiting, yawning, etc.
- Thus, damage or injury to medulla oblongata may disrupt these vital functions. Therefore, injury to medulla oblongata may prove fatal.
