Detailed explanation-1: -Your medulla oblongata is the bottom-most part of your brain. Its location means it’s where your brain and spinal cord connect, making it a key conduit for nerve signals to and from your body. It also helps control vital processes like your heartbeat, breathing and blood pressure.
Detailed explanation-2: -Increased activity of the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) neurons is transmitted to the intermediolateral (IML) cell column of the spinal cord, where peripheral sympathetic nerves to the heart, arterioles and kidneys are activated, thus increasing blood pressure (BP).
Detailed explanation-3: -The cardiovascular center is a part of the human brain found in the medulla oblongata, responsible for regulation of cardiac output.
