The Midbrain
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
The midbrain contains structures involved in movement, arousal, and the orienting of attention toward sudden stimuli.
Show
A loud noise behind a person turns their head before they have identified the sound.
Watch for
The midbrain's reticular formation extends into the hindbrain. Anatomical boundaries here are conventions.
