The medulla is crucial for survival, as it regulates vital bodily functions, including heart rate, breathing, blood circulation, and the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. It also controls reflexive actions such as sneezing, vomiting, coughing, and swallowing.

 2.2.2 The Spinal Cord
 ======================
 
 The spinal cord begins at the base of the medulla and passes through a large opening at the bottom of the skull. Supported by the vertebrae, it serves as a communication highway between the brain and the rest of the body. This long, tubular structure transmits sensory information from the body to the brain and sends motor commands from the brain to the body. Additionally, it is responsible for reflex actions, which are quick and involuntary responses to stimuli.

 2.4.1 Types of neurons
 =========================
 
 1. **Sensory Neurons:** Transmit sensory information (e.g., pain, temperature, pressure) from receptors to the CNS.
 2. **Motor Neurons:** Carry commands from the CNS to muscles and glands, enabling actions like muscle contraction or hormone release. It is the most common type of neuron.
 3. **Interneurons:** These neurons are found in the CNS and act as connectors between sensory and motor neurons. They help process and integrate information.
