Pneumotaxic centre is present on

Which is the main cantre of brain that regulates the repiration rate ?

Assertion: Pneumotaxic center controls the rate of respiration . Reason: Primarly, it controls the switch off point of inspiration.

Assertion (A) In brain stem, pons is called pneumotaxic centre with the ability to moderate the function of the ' respiratory rhythm' centre. Reason ( R) Neural signals from the centre can reduce the duration of expiration, thereby alter the respiratory rate

A specialized centre present in the medulla region of the brain called _________________A_______________ is primarily responsible for this regulation. Another centre present in the pons region of the brain called _________________B_______________ can moderate the funtions of the _________________A_______________. Neural signal from this centre can _________________C_______________ the duration of inspiration and thereby alter the respiratory rate. _________________D_______________ is situated adjacent to the rhythm centre which is highly sensitive to _________________E_______________

Pneumotaxic center is found in

Assertion : Pneumotaxic centre, located in the medulla region of the brain, moderates the respiratory rhythm centre. Reason : Pneumotaxic centre controls the switch 'ON' point of inspiration.

A specialised centre known as raspiratory rhythm centre regulates respiration. It is located in
