Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

Deep beathing rises the `O_(2)` level of the blood. By excess fromation of oxyhaemoglobin the acidity of blood increases. To contral it , more of free `CO_(2)` level in the blood decrases. So due to lack of stimulant for inspiratory centre cessation of brathing takes place. after some time `O_(2)` is consumed by the tissues and rise in `CO_(2)` stimulates beathing again .
