The cerebellum IS involved in posture, as are the basal ganglia and
the brainstem (they start and stop voluntary movements). The
hypothalamus monitors eating, drinking and helps direct the endocrine
system through the pituitary gland. It is also Involved in emotion,
stress, and reward.

The answer is therfore HYPOTHALAMUS - it does not play a significant
role in maintenance of posture and equilibrium
