The structures that develop from the embryonic hindbrain are the medulla, pons, and cerebellum. These structures are involved in basic survival functions such as breathing, heart rate, and balance, as well as motor coordination and control. The thalamus, hypothalamus, association cortex, limbic system, amygdala, and hippocampus develop from other regions of the embryonic brain.
