medium Q6 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Recall brain relay centers
The thalamus is known as the relay station for transmitting sensory and motor signals to the cerebrum.Step 2: Differentiate other parts
Hypothalamus regulates homeostasis, pons connects brain regions, medulla controls vital involuntary functions.Final Answer:
Thalamus → Option AQuick Check:
Brain relay station = Thalamus ✅
Quick Trick: Thalamus = 'Thal' sounds like 'toll' station for signals.
Common Mistakes:
- Confusing hypothalamus or pons with thalamus.
