"A neuron in the aorta detects oxygen content in the blood and relays this information to the brain. This neuron is an afferent fiber in the peripheral nervous system."

A branch of the vagus nerve is the aortic nerve. It provides peripheral baroreceptors and chemoreceptors located in the aortic arch with autonomic afferent nerve fibers. "The tenth cranial nerve is the vagus nerve." Except for the first and the second cranial nerve which is the part of the central nervous system the rest of the cranial nerves are a part of the peripheral nervous system.

Since this nerve fiber detects the oxygen content in the blood and relays this information to the brain it serves a sensory function. These nerves are known as the afferent nerves that transmit the impulse towards the information processing center.

What type of plant would be least affected by the loss of the guard cell function that closes stomata?.
maks197457 [2]

A rainforest plant would be least affected by the loss of guard cell function that closes the stomata.

<h3>What is Guard Cells?</h3>

Guard cells are types of specialized plant cells present in the epidermis of leaves, stems, and other organs that are used to control gas exchange.

They are produced in pairs with a gap between them that forms the stomatal pore. They are kidney-shaped cells that surround stomata and control the opening and closing of stomata.

When there is an excess of water in the plant, the guard cells swell and form a hole for the exchange of gases.

Thus, a rainforest plant would be least affected by the loss of guard cell function that closes the stomata.
