The correct answer is False

Explanation:

Hunger is regulated by the hypothalamus, which is a region located in the brain. Due to this, people with injuries in this zone might experience issues regulating their appetites such as lack of satisfaction after eating or lack of impulse to eat (hunger). Thus, if a patient does not feel hungry and experienced a brain injury, this is likely related to the hypothalamus. On the other hand, the thalamus, which is a different zone in the brain located above the hypothalamus regulates sensory impulses and movements but it is not related to appetite or hunger.
