The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the chemosensitive area, we will evaluate each of the provided options step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Option A **Statement:** "It is located in the medulla region." - The chemosensitive area is indeed located in the medulla oblongata, which is part of the brainstem. This statement is **correct**. ### Step 2: Analyze Option B **Statement:** "It is highly sensitive to oxygen." - This statement is **incorrect**. The chemosensitive area is primarily sensitive to carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen ions (H+), not oxygen. ### Step 3: Analyze Option C **Statement:** "High Hydrogen Ion Concentration activates the Rhyme Center." - This statement is **correct**. An increase in hydrogen ion concentration (which corresponds with increased CO2 levels) stimulates the chemosensitive area, leading to activation of the respiratory centers to adjust breathing. ### Step 4: Analyze Option D **Statement:** "Both A and C." - Since both Option A and Option C are correct, this statement is also **correct**. ### Conclusion Based on the analysis: - Option A is correct. - Option B is incorrect. - Option C is correct. - Option D is correct because it includes both A and C. Thus, the correct answer is **Option D: Both A and C**. ---
