What else can I help you with?
What is the basic rhythm of breathing is controlled by?
The basic rhythm of breathing is controlled by part of the brain called the Medulla.
What are the centers and areas that generate the basic rhythm of the respiratory cycle?
Pons and Medula in the brain stem.
Where is the respiratory center located?
The respiratory center is located in the brainstem, specifically in the medulla oblongata and pons. These regions of the brain control the basic rhythm and depth of breathing through signals to the muscles involved in respiration.
What exerts controls on the respiratory rhythm?
The respiratory rhythm is controlled by the respiratory center located in the brainstem, which receives input from chemoreceptors that sense levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and pH in the blood. Additionally, input from higher brain centers and stretch receptors in the lungs also affect the respiratory rhythm.
Where is the respiratory center of the brain located?
This is actually located in the brainstem in particular the medulla oblongata. This is the primitive part of the brain which we have no "concious" control over (it is autonomic) and ensures that we breathe above all costs (i.e. you can't forcibly hold your breath and suffocate yourself). This part of the brain however can be influenced by other parts of the brain which we do have control over.
What contains reflex centers involved in regulation respiratory rhythm in conjunction with lower brain stem centers?
The medulla oblongata, located in the brain stem, contains reflex centers that are involved in regulating the respiratory rhythm in conjunction with other lower brain stem centers. These centers help coordinate the muscles involved in breathing to ensure proper oxygen intake and carbon dioxide removal.
In which parts of the body does breathing?
The medulla oblongata and pons of the brainstem are the principal regulators of the respiratory system. It is there that the rhythm and depth of our respiration is controlled.
Where is th respiratory rhythmicity center located?
there is a specific group of cells found in the medula (part of the brain stem) which regulate the rhythm of breathing, hence the name (of this cellular formation) the Medulary Rhythmicity Center.
what is the brain function?
The brain stem manages the basic functions of the body - respiratory rate, metabolic rate, maintaining homeostasis, fight or flight response, etc.
What happens to the respiratory rhythm following hyperventilation?
Hyperventilation occurs when the respiratory system is not functioning properly. Hyperventilation is when the breathing rhythm is not proper, shorter breathes, and too much carbon dioxide becomes present.
Which region of the nervous system contains the respiratory center?
The respiratory center is located in the medulla oblongata, which is the lowest part of the brain stem.
Part of brain controls respiration?
The brain stem controls respiration. The medulla and pons are both involved in volume and rhythm control.
