Description
Respiratory muscles are stimulated to contract
by the respiratory center in the medulla.
• The medulla receives input from
chemoreceptors to increase the rate and/or
depth of respiration to maintain homeostasis
in the body.
• Drugs that affect the respiratory system work
to keep the airways open and gases moving
efficiently

Anatomy of head and neck
The head is the globular cranial end of the body, which contains brain and special sense organs, viz. eyes for vision, ears for hearing and equilibrium, nose for smell, and tongue for taste. It also provides openings for the respiratory and digestive systems. Structurally and developmentally, the head is divided into two parts: cranium and face.
