Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that the question is asking about brain structures and the system they belong to.
Recall that the amygdala and hippocampus are parts of the brain involved in emotions and memory.
Identify that these structures are components of the limbic system, which is responsible for emotion, behavior, motivation, long-term memory, and olfaction.
Recognize that the other options (endocrine, digestive, respiratory) refer to different body systems unrelated to these brain structures.
Conclude that the correct answer is the 'limbic' system, as it specifically includes the amygdala and hippocampus.
