Your life would be most immediately threatened if you suffered destruction of the Medulla.

Explanation;

The medulla oblongata is a portion of the hindbrain that controls autonomic functions such as breathing, digestion, heart and blood vessel function, swallowing, and sneezing. It is located in the brainstem, anterior and partially inferior to the cerebellum.
