Answer:

thalamus and hypothalamus

Step-by-step explanation:

The diencephalon is composed of several parts, among which the thalamus, the hypothalamus, the epithalamus and the subthalamus.

The thalamus is found in the upper part of the diencephalon and allows the communication of the brainstem and the upper centers of the brain.
