Ventilation CORRECT ANSWER-movement of air in and out of the lungs Central control (brain stem): primary control CORRECT ANSWER-1. Senses blood pH, a decrease in pH(acidosis) stimulates ventilation 2. Decrease pH = acidosis results in increase rate and/or depth of breathing Peripheral control (PaO2 "sensors in aortic arch): secondary control CORRECT ANSWER-1. Senses PaO2 of blood, decrease in PaO2 (hypoxemia) stimulates ventilation ^ rate/depth of breathing **Chronic PaCO2 retainers rel...
