Which of these parts of the brainstem is correctly matched with itsmain function?a. ventral respiratory groups—stimulate the diaphragmb. dorsal respiratory groups—limit inflation of the lungsc. pontine respiratory group—is involved in the switch betweeninspiration and expirationd. All of these are correct.
Neural output from the brain stem regulated breathing including respiratory rate and depth. In a patient with damage to the medulla oblongata and subsequently to the phrenic nerve, which of the following would be true?
a. the diaphragm may not be able to contract, resulting in respiratory arrest
b. the respiratory rate and depth would increase as signals from the pons would increase
c. the diaphragm will begin to contract on its own via autorhythmic cells
