Summary Introduction

To review:

The factors like cerebral cortex, levels of respiratory gases, proprioceptors, inflation reflex, and temperature, pain, and irritation of the airways modifies the breathing.

Introduction:

The activity of the respiratory center responds to the inputs coming from the brain areas, receptors present in the peripheral nervous system, and another factor, which are responsible for maintaining the homeostasis of breathing. The activity can be easily modified.

Which part of our nervous system has the largest impact on regulation of normal breathing?
1) During alveolar HYPERventilation, levels of blood CO2 drop while blood O2 is elevated. What reflexive responses will this stimulate from the CPG?   a) Increased DRG and VRG activity in the medulla, stimulating I and E motor neurons.   b) Decreased DRG and VRG activity in the medulla, stimulating I and E motor neurons.   c) Decreased DRG and VRG activity in the medulla, inhibiting I and E motor neurons.   d) Increased DRG and VRG activity in the medulla, inhibiting I and E motor neurons.
