Which of the following statements are INCORRECT regarding the cardiovascular control centres in the medulla oblongata? Question 68 Select one: A. The centres receive sensory information along afferent pathways to adjust cardiac output and blood pressure accordingly B. There is both a sympathetic and parasympathetic division to maintain homeostasis C. The parasympathetic division will produce cardioinhibitory action to reduce heart rate and therefore reduce cardiac output D. They contain baroreceptors to detect changes in blood pressure and therefore can adjust cardiac output accordingly

Which one of the following parts of the brain regulates heart activity? A cardiovascular center B blood pressure monitor region C baroreceptor integration center D systolic and diastolic maintenance region E cardiac output regulator
Benjamin D.
All of the following statements regarding central control of autonomic functions are correct except: Baroreceptors are pressure sensors located at various cardiovascular sites. The parasympathetic system is activated by the CNS in response to a sudden drop in blood pressure. The sympathetic system is activated by the CNS in response to a sudden drop in blood pressure. The parasympathetic system is activated by the CNS in response to a sudden increase in blood pressure.

Which of the following statements concerning MAP regulation is TRUE? A) An increase in sympathetic input to cardiac auto-rhythmic cells will increase cardiac output B) A decrease in sympathetic input to cardiac auto-rhythmic cells will decrease cardiac output C) An increase in parasympathetic input to cardiac auto-rhythmic cells will decrease cardiac output D) Both B & C E) All of the above
