The answer is B. The cardiac, respiratory, and vasomotor control centers are in the medulla. This means that the medulla controls heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, and the size of the body's blood vessels. They have chemoreceptors, pH sensing structures that detect levels of carbon dioxide in the blood and adjust the breathing rate accordingly.

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

<h2>lactic acid</h2>

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the process of the breakdown of glucose by enzymes, and the energy production in the cell. It occurs in all cell in all organism.
