During exercise, the medulla oblongata, which regulates autonomic functions such as heart rate and respiration, is stimulated by increased sensory input from the body. As physical activity intensifies, signals from proprioceptors, chemoreceptors, and baroreceptors inform the medulla about changes in muscle activity, oxygen levels, and blood pressure. This leads to autonomic adjustments, including increased heart rate and respiratory rate, to meet the heightened metabolic demands of the body during exercise.
