In a few sentences, list three functions that the hindbrain is responsible for.

The hindbrain is composed of three main components: medulla, the pons, and the cerebellum.

The medulla is situated right next to the spinal cord and it controls all of the functions outside the conscious control such as breathing as well as blood flow.
