Which of the following correctly describes how the baroreceptor reflexes would respond to a fall in blood pressure?The cardioinh

ibitory center would be stimulated.The vasomotor center would increase sympathetic output to arterial smooth muscle to increase TPR.Contractility would decrease and heart rate would increase.Baroreceptors would be stimulated and send increased impulses to the cardiovascular control center in the medulla.The cardioacceleratory center would increase parasympathetic output to the heart.

The correct answer is: The vasomotor center would increase sympathetic output to arterial smooth muscle to increase TPR.

Baroreceptors are mechanoreceptors (sensors or modified nerve endings) found in the blood vessels and their function is to detect the change in blood pressure and participate in the regulation of it (so that proper blood pressure can be maintained). The action of baroreceptors or baroreflex works as a negative feedback loop: when the blood pressure is decreased, baroreflex activation also decreases (baroreceptors are active even at normal blood pressures) and causes heart rate to increase.

Decreased blood pressure leads to lower baroreceptor “firing” which then results in an increase in sympathetic stimulation of the heart and sympathetic stimulation of the peripheral vessels, resulting in vasoconstriction. As a result blood pressure increase.

svlad2 [7]
The allele which has light color appears to be altering transcription and that is why the corresponding mRNA is absent in zebrafish which is homozygous. The protein we can say were absent because mRNA which is being required for protein synthesis it was not present. 
If the allele had altered translation, mRNA which is functional would have been present but in the same case, the protein will still be absent.
