Detailed explanation-1: -The pons is responsible for reflex actions including chewing, tasting, and saliva production. The spinal cord ends at the fourth or fifth lumbar vertebra. After circulating, the cerebrospinal fluid is absorbed into the blood vessels through special structures called choroid plexuses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your brainstem also contains 10 of the 12 cranial nerves (nerves that start in your brain). These nerves control your facial movements, sensations and taste.
Detailed explanation-3: -Well, reflexes are functions of the nervous system, which coordinates our actions. The nervous system is the network of neurons that transmits the action potentials. The sensor and neurons are outside the spinal cord, in what is called the peripheral nervous system (PNS).
