If you are asking about reflexes, the sub-cortical brain controls most of the involuntary activities.
Brain stem (mid brain, pons and medulla), spinal cord have a major role in involuntary activities.
If what type of Involuntary activity is mentioned means the names of the specific sites of the brain can be provided.
The medulla oblongata is the lower half of the brainstem. The medulla contains the cardiac, respiratory, vomiting and vasomotor centers and deals with autonomic functions, such as breathing, heart rate and blood pressure.

The most posterior part of the brain which continues as a spinal chord known as 'Medulla oblongata' controls involuntary functions like breathing, heart beats, coughing, sneezing, hiccupping etc.
Breathing is controlled in two parts of the brain. One is the medulla oblongata and the other is the pons.

Connect the brain to the spinal cord and controls involuntary actions such as breathing blood pressure and heartbeat?
