1. The document describes the automatic respiratory control system, including both nervous and chemical regulation of breathing.
2. The nervous control involves afferent nerves that transmit sensory information to respiratory centers in the brainstem, which then send efferent signals to respiratory muscles via motor nerves.
3. Chemical control involves central and peripheral chemoreceptors that detect levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen ions in the blood and stimulate breathing as needed to maintain homeostasis.

Regulation of respiration (the guyton and hall physiology)Maryam Fida
Normal respiration is spontaneous and unconscious.
There are 4 groups of neurons on each side in the Pons and medulla oblongata which are involved in regulation of respiration. These include
1. Medullary centers
Dorsal respiratory group of neurons
Ventral respiratory group of neurons
2. Pontine centers
Pneumotaxic centre
Apneustic centre.
It contains “I”neurons which are inspiratory neurons.
It’s located in dorsal portion of medulla oblongata.
It also includes the nucleus of tractus solitarius which is the sensory termination of afferent fibers in 9th ( GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL NERVE) and 10th (VAGUS NERVE) cranial nerves.
They receive impulses from peripheral chemoreceptors, carotid and aortic baroreceptors and also other receptors in the lungs.
In this group inspiratory ramp signals are produced spontaneously.
If we cut the medulla oblongata from other parts of brain and also the afferent nerves which enter the medulla, still inspiratory ramp signals are produced which indicate it’s the inherent property of medulla.
Initially the signal is weak and then it progressively increases and then fades away.
Each ramp signal’s duration is 2 sec and then for 3 seconds there is no ramp signal.
So each cycle lasts for 5 seconds and there are 12 cycles /minute which is the respiratory rate.
Significance of the signal in the form of ramp is that it causes progressive expansion of the lungs. After production, these ramp signals are transmitted to the contra lateral motor neurons supplying the inspiratory muscles.
Rate and duration of inspiratory ramp signals is controlled by impulses from the Pneumotaxic centre and impulses from the lungs via vagi.
Like heartbeat, breathing must occur in a continuous, cyclic pattern to sustain life processes.
Inspiratory muscles must rhythmically contract and relax to alternately fill the lungs with air and empty them.
The rhythmic pattern of breathing is established by cyclic neural activity to the respiratory muscles

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2. RESPIRATION
Process by which cells in the body use oxygen and
produce carbon dioxide, exchanging these gases with the
atmosphere
Efficient respiration also requires many functions of the
cardiovascular and central nervous system
4. NERVOUS CONTROL
AFFERENT
NERVES
RESPIRATORY
CENTERS
EFFERENT
NERVES
Medullary and pontine
centers collects
sensory information
about the level of
oxygen and carbon
dioxide in the blood
and determines the
signals to be sent to
the respiratory muscles
The nucleus of the
tractus solitarius is the
sensory termination of
both the vagal and the
glossopharyngeal
nerves, which transmit
sensory signals into the
respiratory center
from
(1) peripheral
chemoreceptors,
(2) baroreceptors,
(3) several types of
receptors in the lungs.
Phrenic nerve fibers:
supplies diaphragm
The intercostal nerve
fibers: supplies
intercostal muscles.
8. Medullary centers
a. Inspiratory Area - DRG - dorsal respiratory group neurons
b. Expiratory Area - VRG - ventral respiratory group neurons
a. Pneumotaxic Center - located in upper pons (“off switch”)
b. Apneustic Center - located in lower pons (prevents turn-off)
a. pulmonary stretch receptors (Hering-Breuer reflex)
b. other receptors
Pontine centers
Pulmonary receptor
9. Dorsal Respiratory Group of Neurons
Located within the nucleus of Tractus Solitarius which in itself is the sensory
termination of Vagus and Glossopharyngeal nerves.
Basic rhythm of respiration is generated here.
It generates the Inspiratory Ramp Signal to the inspiratory muscles like
diaphragm.
This causes an inspiration which begins weakly & increases steadily in a ramp
manner for 2 seconds & then ceases abruptly for the next 3 seconds to allow
elastic recoil of lungs & chest wall to cause expiration.
This ramp pattern causes a steady increase in the volume of lungs rather than
inspiratory gasps
10. Ventral Respiratory Group of Neurons
Located anterior and lateral to the dorsal group.
Present within Nucleus Ambiguus & Nucleus Retroambiguus
Totally inactive during normal quiet respiration.
Important in providing powerful expiratory signals to the abdominal muscles
during heavy exercise.
11.
12. Pneumotaxic Centre
Located dorsally in the Nucleus Parabrachialis of upper pons.
Controls the switch-off point of the inspiratory ramp, thus controlling the
duration of filling phase of the lung cycle.
It limits the inspiration.
Thus, it secondarily increases the respiratory rate
13. Apneustic Centre
Located in the lower part of pons.
Sends signals to the dorsal group to retard the switch-off of the inspiratory
ramp signal.
Thus, it increases the inspiratory time.
Operates in association with the pneumotaxic centre to control the intensity
of inspiration.
18. Role of higher centers
In addition to simple changing the dgree of ventilation, it
causes unusual aspect such as gasping
Medulla respond by adjusting speed and depth of respiration
Muscles
Higher brain centers such as hypothalamus can inhibit or stimulate
medulla
Medulla oblongata
19. Chemical control of ventilation
The ultimate goal of respiration is to maintain proper concentrations of O2,
CO2 and H+ ions in the tissues.
All these are involved in the chemical control of ventilation.
These chemicals ultimately affect the respiratory centres & thus control the
ventilation.
21. Central chemoreceptor
CO2 and H+ ions are involved.
These act upon the chemosensitive area of the respiratory centre directly.
O2 has virtually no effect on the respiratory centre itself.
22. Chemosensitive Area of the Respiratory
Center
Located bilaterally beneath the ventral surface of medulla.
Highly sensitive to changes in the blood PCO2 or Hydrogen ion concentration
It excites the other portions of the respiratory centre
23. Response of the Chemosensitive Neurons
to Hydrogen Ions: The Primary Stimulus
Hydrogen ions are the most important direct stimulus for these neurons.
But, Hydrogen ions don’t easily cross the blood-brain barrier.
So changes in blood concentration of hydrogen ions have less effect in
stimulating the chemosensitive neurons than do changes in CO2.
CO2 acts secondarily on these neurons by changing the hydrogen ion
concentration.
24. Effect of Blood Carbondioxide to
Stimulate the Chemosensitive Area
CO2 has a very potent indirect effect on the chemosensitive area.
CO2 passes easily through the blood brain barrier.
CO2 reacts with H2O to form hydrogen ions in the CSF & interstitial fluid of
medulla.
Thus more H+ ions are paradoxically released into the respiratory
chemosensitive area when blood CO2 rises than when blood hydrogen ion
concentration rises.
Blood CO2 concentration has a more potent acute effect, but a weak chronic
effect on controlling ventilatory drive. This is because of the readjustment by
kidneys (by increasing blood bicarbonate which enters CSF & binds with the H+
ions), which bring back the hydrogen ion concentration to normal.
25.
26. is very sensitive to increase in H+
concentration.
H+ cannot cross the blood brain barrier
and blood cerebrospinal fluid barrier.
On the other hand if CO2 increases in
the blood as it is a gas it can cross both
the barrier easily and after entering the
brain it combines with water to form
carbonic acid.
As carbonic acid is unstable, it
immediately dissociates into hydrogen
and bicarbonate ions.
H2CO3 H+ + HCO3-
The H+ now stimulates the central
chemoreceptors, which stimulates dorsal
group of respiratory center (inspiratory
group) and increase rate and force of
breathing.
Chemosensitive Area
27. Peripheral Chemoreceptor System
Includes the chemoreceptors in carotid bodies and aortic bodies.
Carotid bodies are located bilterally at the bifurcation of the common
carotids of the two sides. Their afferents pass through the Glossopharyngeal
nerves.
Aortic bodies are located along the arch of aorta. Their afferents pass through
the Vagi of the two sides.
Both afferents reach the dorsal respiratory centre.
The “Glomus cells” in these bodies function as the chemoreceptors.
These are stimulated by a fall in blood O2 concentration, particularly when
PO2 falls from 60 mmHg down to 30 mmHg. This is the range in which
hemoglobin O2 saturation decreases rapidly.
30. Effect of CO2 & hydrogen ion concentration
on peripheral chemoreceptors
Peripheral chemoreceptors are also stimulated by a rise in blood CO2 and
hydrogen ion concentration.
This is very minute in comparison to their direct effect on central
chemoreceptors.
But, the effect of CO2 on peripheral chemoreceptors is 5 times as rapid as on
central chemoreceptors. This might be important at the onset of exercise.
31.
32.
33. Classification of mechanoreceptors
Situated in the
mucous of
bronchi and
bronchioles
Pulmonary/ irritant
Situated on
the wall of
bronchi and
bronchioles
stretch
Present on the
wall of alveoli
and close
association with
pulmonary
capillary
juxtacapillary
34. Effect of Pulmonary Stretch Receptors:
The Hering- Breuer Inflation Reflex
Mediated through the Stretch Receptors located in the muscular portions of
the walls of bronchi & bronchioles.
These stretch receptors transmit signals through the vagi into the dorsal
respiratory group of neurons when the lungs are overstretched, leading to
switching-off of the inspiratory ramp.
This reflex is activated at a tidal volume of > 1.5 litre.
It thus acts as a protective mechanism in preventing excessive lung inflation.
It also leads to an increase in respiratory rate.
36. THE HERING BREUER INFLATION REFLEX :- When it restrict the
inspiration and limit the overstretching of lung tissue
Reverse of it is called as THE HERING BREUER DEFLATION REFLEX :-
Occur during expiration
During expiration stretching of lung is absent, deflation occur
37.
38. The Effect of Irritant Receptors
Irritant receptors :
a) Located in epithelium of trachea, bronchi &
bronchioles.
b) Cause coughing & sneezing.
c) Also cause bronchial constriction in asthma &
emphysema.
39. The Effect of J-Receptors
J- Receptors :
a) Located in alveolar walls in juxtaposition to pulmonary capillaries.
b) Stimulated when pulmonary capillaries are engorged with blood or in
pulmonary edema, CHF (chronic heart failure).
c) Their excitation leads to a feeling of dyspnea.
40. Effect of Golgi tendon organs
These occur in series arrangement within the ventilatory muscles, particularly
the intercostal muscles.
When the lungs are full & the chest wall is stretched, these receptors send
signals to the brainstem that inhibit further inspiration.
41. Propioceptor
Proprioceptors are the receptors which give response to the change in the
position of different parts of the body.
This receptors are situated in joints, muscles and tendons. They get
stimulated during exercise and sends impulses to the cerebral cortex.
Cerebral cortex in turn by activating medullary respiratory centres causes
hyperventilation.
42. Thermoreceptors
Thermoreceptors give response to change in the body temperature.
They are cutaneous receptors namely cold and warmth
When this receptors get stimulated they send signals to cerebral cortex
Cerebral cortex in turn stimulates respiratory centres and causes
hyperventilation
43. Pain receptors
Pain receptors give response to pain stimulus.
Like other receptors this receptors also send impulses to the cerebral cortex.
Cerebral cortex in turn stimulates the respiratory centers ad causes
hyperventilation.
44. Respiratory muscle
Diaphragm (Phrenic nerve (C3 - C5) and sensory supply by phrenic
nerve to central tendon and lower 6 or 7 intercostal nerve to
peripheral parts
Ext.intercostal (by intercostal
nerves Th1-Th11)
Int.intercostal
by intercostal nerves
Th1-Th11
Sternocleidomastoid (accessory nerve. It supplies
only motor fibres. The cervical plexus supplies
sensation, including proprioception, via
the ventral primary rami of C2 and C3. )
Scalneus
C4-C6
46. Cough reflex
This is a protective reflex caused by irritation of parts of the respiratory tract
beyond nose like larynx, trachea and bronchi.
Irritation of any of this part causes stimulation of vagus nerve and cough
occurs.
Cough begins with deep inspiration followed by forceful expiration with
closed glottis.
So the intrapleural pressure rises above 100 mm Hg.
Then, glottis is suddenly opened with explosive outflow of air at a higher
velocity. So the irritants may be expelled out of the respiratory tract.
47. Sneezing reflex
It is also a protective reflex which occurs due to the irritation of nasal mucus
membrane.
During irritation of nasal mucus membrane, the olfactory receptors and
trigeminal nerve endings present in the nasal mucosa are stimulated leading
to sneezing.
Sneezing starts with deep inspiration, followed by forceful expiratory effort
with opened glottis and the irritants are expelled out of the respiratory tract.
48. Deglutition reflex
During swallowing of the food, the respiration is arrested for a while.
Temporary arrest of the respiration is called apnea and apnea which occurs
during swallowing called swallowing apnea or deglutition apnea.
This prevents entry of the food particles into the respiratory tract.
49. The Phenomenon of Acclimatization
It’s the phenomenon whereby one can withstand lower concentrations of
atmospheric O2 when chronically exposed to such an atmosphere.
Found in mountain climbers who climb the mountains over a period of days.
Reason: Within 2 to 3 days the respiratory centre in the brain stem loses 4/5th
of its sensitivity to changes in arterial PCO2 and hydrogen ion concentration.
Thus the high ventilatory blow-off of CO2 that can depress ventilation, fails to
do so. Thus, the low O2 concentration can drive the respiratory system to a
much higher level of ventilation than under acute settings.
50. CONTROL OF VENTILATION DURING
EXERCISE
In strenous exercise O2 consumption & CO2 production can increase as much
as 20-fold.
But, the alveolar ventilation increases almost exactly in step, and thus, the
arterial PO2, PCO2 & pH remain almost exactly normal.
51. Factors causing Increased Ventilation in
Exercise
Contrary to expectations, PCO2, PO2 & pH don’t have a role to play in
stepping up the ventilation during exercise, because their levels don’t change
significantly during exercise.
The brain, while transmitting motor signals to the muscles, also transmits
collateral impulses into the brain stem to excite the respiratory centre,
analogous to the vasomotor centre to increase the arterial BP during exercise.
During exercise, the body movements excite the muscle & joint
proprioceptors which transmit excitatory impulses to the respiratory centre,
thus increasing ventilation
52. Role of respiratory system in acid base
balance
Ventilatory Response to Acid-Base Changes
Because the CO2-bicarbonate buffer system plays a significant role in
regulating pH, the lungs can alter arterial pH by changing arterial Pco2.
Ventilation is increased in response to metabolic acidemia.
Ventilation is decreased in response to metabolic alkalemia.
54. Respiratory System
2nd line of defense.
Acts within min. maximal in 12-24 hrs.
H2CO3 produced converted to CO2, and excreted by the lungs.
Powerful, but works with volatile acids
Exhalation of carbon dioxide.
CO2 + H20 ↔ H2CO3 ↔ H+ + HCO3
-
Body pH can be adjusted by changing rate and depth of breathing
55.
56. Acid-Base Imbalances
pH< 7.35 acidosis
pH > 7.45 alkalosis
The body response to acid-base imbalance is called compensation
May be complete if brought back within normal limits
Partial compensation if range is still outside norms.
57. Respiratory Acidosis
Carbonic acid excess caused by blood levels of CO2 above 45 mm Hg
Hypercapnia – high levels of CO2 in blood
Chronic conditions:
Depression of respiratory center in brain that controls breathing rate – drugs or head
trauma
Paralysis of respiratory or chest muscles
Emphysema
Acute conditions:
Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Pulmonary edema
Pneumothorax
58. Compensation for Respiratory Acidosis
Kidneys eliminate hydrogen ion and retain bicarbonate ion
Acute respiratory failure:
pH low, [HCO-
3] high normal, or slightly raised
Chronic respiratory failure:
pH normal or low depending upon chronicity, [HCO-
3] raised
59. Signs and Symptoms of Respiratory
Acidosis
Breathlessness
Restlessness
Lethargy and disorientation
Tremors, convulsions, coma
Respiratory rate rapid then gradually depressed
Skin warm and flushed due to vasodilatation caused by excess CO2
60.
61. Respiratory Alkalosis
Carbonic acid deficit
pCO2 less than 35 mm Hg (hypocapnea)
Primary cause is hyperventilation
Conditions that stimulate respiratory center:
Hysterical over breathing (overrides normal respiratory control)
Raised intracranial pressure - ICP (which stimulate respiratory centre)
Hypoxia
Pulmonary edema
Lobar pneumonia
Pulmonary collapse or fibrosis
Excessive artificial ventilation
62. Compensation of Respiratory Alkalosis
Compensatory fall in plasma [HCO-
3] tends to correct the pH
Pco2 always reduced
[HCO-
3] low normal or low
pH raised (uncompensated or partly compensated) or normal (fully
compensated)
