Can you guys double-check my understanding of the different brain structures?

[FROGGBUSTER]

Hypothalamus: Thirst, hunger, temperature regulation, sex drive, anger.
Medulla: Breathing, heart rate, blood pressure
Thalamus: Mood and feelings.
Amygdala: Anger
Hippocampus: Short-term memory

Any other functions to add for these 5 structures?

I think the amygdala is involved in emotions in general, not just anger.
