question 17
which are the two baroreceptors that are located near the heart?
coronary baroreceptors and aortic baroreceptors
aortic baroreceptors and carotid baroreceptors
carotid baroreceptors and venous baroreceptors
aortic baroreceptors and pulmonary baroreceptors
Baroreceptors are sensory receptors that detect changes in blood pressure. Aortic baroreceptors are located in the aortic arch near the heart. Pulmonary baroreceptors are also located near the heart in the pulmonary circulation. Coronary baroreceptors are related to the coronary arteries (not the main ones near the heart in this context). Carotid baroreceptors are in the carotid sinus (not near the heart). Venous baroreceptors are in veins (not the primary ones near the heart here).
