Heart rate and breathing are regulated by a part of the brain stem called the medulla oblongata. This part of the brain stem controls breathing,heartbeat and articulate speech. As far as trembling that is a result of the automatic nervous system activation. It can also increase heart rate and increase breathing rate but it is not a control for these three. This part is called the sympathetic half of the autonomic system, the other half is the parasympathetic.
You can not live without the medulla. A blow to that area will kill.
The effects of the sympathetic nervous system are essential opposite those of the parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system accelerates functions such as heart rate and breathing and the parasympathetic slows these bodily processes down. The sympathetic also inhibits digestion, whereas the parasympathetic stimulates digestion. The sympathetic nervous system produces "fight-or-flight" reactions, while the parasympathetic functions under relaxed conditions.
The autonomic nervous system controls the body's unconscious activities, such as heart rate, digestion, and breathing. It is responsible for regulating these functions to maintain homeostasis in the body without conscious effort.
The sympathetic nervous system can increase breathing rate and depth by stimulating the muscles involved in breathing, such as the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. This response is part of the body's fight-or-flight reaction to stress or danger.
The nervous system The central nervous system
The Sympathetic and Parasympathetic nervous systems are the divisions of the ANS. The sympathetic is where "fight or flight" comes in, and the parasympathetic is what calms us down afterward -- they work to balance each other.
The brain is part of the nervous system and not the breathing (respiratory)system.
The nervous system controls breathing rate.
medulla
You are probably referring to "involuntary body functions" - and the answer would be the autonomic nervous system. This system could be further divided into the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system.
Yes.
The answer to this one is medulla:))))))))(((((((((
respiratory system
The Brain, specifically the brain stem and the central nervous system that controls any "unconscious" activities like breathing and pulse rate.
The central nervous system.
The nervous system including the central nervous system and the peripheral system are responsible for coordination and control.
The effects of the sympathetic nervous system are essential opposite those of the parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system accelerates functions such as heart rate and breathing and the parasympathetic slows these bodily processes down. The sympathetic also inhibits digestion, whereas the parasympathetic stimulates digestion. The sympathetic nervous system produces "fight-or-flight" reactions, while the parasympathetic functions under relaxed conditions.
The two integral parts of the autonomic nervous system are the sympathetic nervous system responsible for, "rest and digest" and the parasympathetic nervous system that is responsible for, "fight or flight".
