Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The adjustment of respiratory rate in response to changes in blood pressure is regulated by sensory fibers in the glossopharyngeal (IX) and vagus (X) cranial nerves, which stimulate or inhibit the respiratory centers. The accessory (XI) and hypoglossal (XII) cranial nerves are not involved in this process.
