    movement‚ the maintenance of muscle tone‚ and various cardiac‚ circulatory‚ and respiratory reflexes. Damage to this part of the brain is life-threatening. The metencephalon also houses many tracts that both ascend and descend as part of a reticular formation. These structures create a bulge called the pons. The pons is one major division of the metencephalon. The other is the cerebellum. This is the large convoluted structure on the brain stem. Damage to this part of the brain makes it impossible

    Myeloid tissue Is the bone marrow Why we discuss myeloid tissue/bone marrow? – because we want to study the development of blood cells. We called it HEMOPOEISIS/HEMATOPEISIS HEMOPEISIS/HEMATOPOEISIS –Blood cell formation (occurs in the bone group) Why study this? Because: there is a continuous replacement of cells they have short life span when they are in the peripheral circulation so‚ we have to study how these cells mature and differentiate Phases of hematopoeisis MESOBLASTIC PHASE
