Answer:

The fore-brain consists of the cerebrum, thalamus, and hypothalamus. Mid-brain relays information between fore-brain and hind-brain. Mid-brain plays important role in developing motor functions like eye movement, auditory functions and visual processing. The crus cerebri connects the cerebral hemispheres to the cerebellum, contains a portion having a network of neurons that is responsible for arousal and alertness.
