No, the ventral respiratory group is not contained within the pons. It is a collection of neurons in the medulla oblongata that plays a major role in regulating respiration. The pons is also involved in regulating breathing, but it houses the pontine respiratory group.

Nerve impulses from what will result in inspiration?
The ventral respiratory group (VGR), a network of neurons that extends in the ventral brain stem from the spinal cord to the pons-medulla junction, appears to be the rhythm-generating and integrative center of respiration.
Where in the medulla are the neurons that set the basic respiratory rhytm?
The answer is Ventral Respiratory Group or VRGIt contains the rhythm generators "whose output drives respiration".Hoehn, Marieb Human Anatomy & PhysiologyEighth Edition pg. 835
What is a respiratory control center?
Respiratory control centers are located in the medulla and the pons. In the medulla the ventral respiratory group contains rhythm generators whose output drives respiration. Also in the medulla, the neurons of the dorsal respiratory group integrate peripheral sensory input and modify the rhythms generated by the VRG. The pons respiratory centers interact with the medulla centers to smooth the breathing pattern. The respiratory center (RC), itself, is located in the medulla oblongata, the lowermost portion of the brainstem.
The respiratory areas are widely scattered throughtout the pons and of the brainstem?
The- respiratory group within the madulla oblongata regulates the basic rhythm of breathing.
What is respiratory circulation and its functions?
The respiratory system is the group of organs within your body that enables you to breathe. The circulation system circulates blood throughout your body,
What is a control center?
Respiratory control centers are located in the medulla and the pons. In the medulla the ventral respiratory group contains rhythm generators whose output drives respiration. Also in the medulla, the neurons of the dorsal respiratory group integrate peripheral sensory input and modify the rhythms generated by the VRG. The pons respiratory centers interact with the medulla centers to smooth the breathing pattern. The respiratory center (RC), itself, is located in the medulla oblongata, the lowermost portion of the brainstem.
How are elements contained within the group on the periodic table?
They have the same number of valence electrons (total of s and p electrons)
What are the five nuclear groups of thalamus?
medial groupanterior grouplateral group, subdivided into = dorsal lateral + postero-lateral nucleiventral group, subdivided into = anterior ventral + imtermediate ventral + posterior ventral nucleinon-specific nuclei, which include = intralaminar + reticular + middle line nuclei
What is the functional group contained in thiol?
sulfhydryl group
What respiratory group stimulates the intercostals?
Dorsal
What functional group is contained in ch3ch2sh?
thiol
What are the respiratory areas?
The components of the respiratory areas are widely scattered throughout the pons and medulla oblongata. Two parts of the respiratory areas are of special interest: the respiratory center of the medulla and the respiratory group of the pons.
