The medulla oblongata contains vital autonomic centers controlling respiration, cardiac activity, and vasomotor functions. The cerebrum is involved in higher mental functions, the cerebellum coordinates movement, and the hypothalamus regulates homeostasis but does not directly control these vital reflexes.
