C. Medulla oblongata

Explanation:

A long stem like structure called medulla oblongata is present in the lower portion of the brainstem. The medulla oblongata is responsible for effective functioning of heart and blood vessel. The breathing rate is regulated by medulla oblongata. Sneezing, digestion and swallowing are some of the functions controlled by the medulla oblongata.
