Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Sudden collapse of the lung stimulates strong inspiratory efforts (deflation reflex).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
If the Hering-Breuer reflex is blocked by cooling the vagus nerve, lung hyperinflation causes a further increase in inspiratory effort, the opposite of the Hering-Breuer reflex. The receptors for this reflex are called rapidly adapting receptors, because they stop firing promptly after a volume change occurs. Head's reflex may help maintain large tidal volumes during exercise and may be involved in periodic deep sighs during quiet breathing.
