If the pH, PO2, and PCO2 of arterial blood do not change during the light to moderate phase of the progressive test, what are the signals to the respiration center that drive breathing in proportion to the workload? A) stretch receptors located in the lungs B) neural input from higher brain centers C) feedback from chemoreceptors located in the carotid bodies D) feedback from chemoreceptors located in the aortic bodies
