Human brain. Computer artwork of a cut-away of the skull showing the brain, one optic nerve (orange, centre right) and one olfactory nerve (orange, centre). At centre is the brainstem, which controls automatic functions, sleep and arousal and relays messages from the brain to the spinal cord. The striped structure at centre right is the cerebellum, which controls muscle coordination and balance.
