Answer 1

Answer:

stop eating center of the brain

Explanation:

This part of the brain is involved with telling or recognizing when the body is full. Example: when you say you are full and don't want to eat anymore . The VMH is responsible for a feeling of satiety whereby for instance we are no longer hungry because we have had enough to fill us, e.g- when we do not want to engage in sexual activity because we've already had enough sex. Studies have found that when the VMH is damaged it could lead to such things as obesity whereby a person can't tell when he is full.
