Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The thalamus is the subcortical structure that acts as a sensory relay station, receiving and processing sensory information from all sensory organs except for the olfactory system, before relaying it to the relevant cortical regions for further processing. The hippocampus is involved in memory formation, while the amygdala is involved in emotional processing and fear response.
