A response from the amigdala. The reason for this is that when the medulla starts signalling brain regions that are in upper parts, especially the amigdala, this then triggers the fear response (amigdala is responsible for this) which in turn alerts us on a conscious level that we should leave this room for example and go to somewhere where more oxygen is present.
These help the doctor because where there is inflammation there is heat and where ever there is inflammation, that is the part of the body that has the issue so symptoms should arise from that area.
Answer:
The human skull consists of 22 bones (or 29, including the inner ear bones and hyoid bone) which are mostly connected together by ossified joints, so called sutures. The skull is divided into the braincase (neurocranium) and the facial skeleton (viscerocranium). Its main task is the protection of the most important organ in the human body: the brain.
The brain is almost entirely enclosed by the neurocranium with the exception of the foramen magnum and other foramina at the skull base which serve as entry and exit point for blood vessels and cranial nerves. Also, the skull provides support for all of the facial structures.
