Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The superior colliculus is a subcortical region in the midbrain that has been shown to maintain multimodal maps of the environment and is involved in the control and orienting of movements. The pons, cerebellum, and medulla are also subcortical regions, but they do not have as direct a role in maintaining multimodal maps or orienting movements.
