AnSwer :

\bigstar The ability to maintain and moderate the respiratory rhythm according to the demand of the body tissues is due to the neural control.

\bigstar Respiratory rhythm centre located in the medulla of the brain, is primarily responsible for this regulation.

\bigstar Pneumotaxic centre present in the pons of the brain functions as the “switch off" point for regulation; by altering the duration of inspiration, it can alter the respiratory rate.

\bigstar Achemosensitive area is situated adjacent to the rhythm centre; it is highly sensitive to carbon dioxide by hydrogen ions.

\bigstar An increase in the concentration of these substances activates this centre which in turn sends signals to rhythm centre to make necessary adjustments in the respiratory process.

\bigstar Receptors associated with aortic arch and carotid artery also are sensitive to carbon dioxide and rhythm centre.

\bigstar Oxygen plays only an insignificant role in the regulation of respiratory rhythm.
