Answer:

The vital center of the brain is Brain Stem

Step-by-step explanation:

The brain stem consists of three parts namely, the medulla oblongata, Pons and the mid brain.

medulla oblongata controls breathing, coughing, hiccuping, swallowing, vomiting, sneezing, heart rate and diameter of blood vessels. the messages from brain to spinal cord are transferred from oblongata

Pons control facial expressions, eye movement, posture, equilibrium, taste and etc. Pons also conduct messages from spinal cord to the rest of the brain.

while the midbrain conveys impulses from the cerebral cortex to the pons and spinal cord
