Answer:

The action that was not controlled by her medulla is:

D) Wind caused her mobile to move, and she smiled.

Explanation:

Our medulla oblongata is a neuronal mass responsible for transmitting signals between the spinal cord and the higher parts of the brain. <u>The medulla oblongata also controls </u><u>autonomic</u><u> activities - involuntary body functions and actions such as </u><u>heartbeat, respiration, vasodilation, coughing, sneezing, and swallowing.</u><u> Notice that letter D is, out of the options, the only one that does not mention an autonomic activity. Therefore, we can choose it as the one that was NOT controlled by Heather's medulla.</u>
