Detailed explanation-1: -Baroreceptor exerts control of mean arterial pressure as a negative feedback loop. Nerve impulses from arterial baroreceptors are tonically active; increases in arterial blood pressure will result in an increased rate of impulse firing.
Detailed explanation-2: -Baroreceptors are mechanoreceptors located in blood vessels near the heart that provide the brain with information pertaining to blood volume and pressure, by detecting the level of stretch on vascular walls.
Detailed explanation-3: -The baroreceptors send signals to the brain and the signals are interpreted as a rise in blood pressure. The brain sends signals to other parts of the body to reduce blood pressure such as the blood vessels, heart and kidneys.
