Andningscentrum
Andningscentrum is a collective term referring to the neural control centers in the brainstem responsible for regulating breathing. These centers are located within the medulla oblongata and pons. The primary function of the andningscentrum is to establish and maintain a rhythmic pattern of respiration, ensuring the body receives an adequate supply of oxygen and efficiently removes carbon dioxide.
The andningscentrum is composed of several groups of neurons. The dorsal respiratory group (DRG) is primarily
These respiratory centers receive input from various sources, including chemoreceptors that monitor blood oxygen and carbon
