Question

Inhibitory centre and pneumotaxic centre concerned with

• A. Respiration
• B. Digestion
• C. Reflex action
• D. Breathing

Answer 1

The correct option is D Breathing

• The respiratory centre is made up of three major respiratory groups of neurons, two in the medulla and one in the pons.
• In the medulla, they are the dorsal respiratory group and the ventral respiratory group. In the pons, the pontine respiratory group includes two areas known as the pneumotaxic centre and the apneustic centre.
• The respiratory centre is responsible for generating and maintaining the rhythm of respiration Hence, Inhibitory centre and pneumotaxic centre concerned with breathing.

So, the correct answer is 'breathing'.
