Describe in detail the baroreceptor reflex. Be sure to name and describe all the contributing components, their locations, their specific roles in the reflex. Then give an example of a situation in which blood pressure would suddenly fall and explain how the baroreceptor reflex operates to maintain blood pressure homeostasis. Then give an example of a situation in which blood pressure would suddenly rise and explain how the baroreceptor reflex operates to maintain blood pressure homeostasis. (it’s easiest to choose simple examples like body position changes lying to standing, standing to lying down).
