134 HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY The amounts of oxygen absorbed in Pettenkofer and Volt's experi- ments varied from 594 to 1, 072 grams; of carbon dioxid exhaled, from 686 to 1, 285 grams. The Nerve Mechanism of Respiration. The simultaneous and coordi- nated activity of the inspiratory muscles implies the simultaneous and coordinated activity of nerve centers and their related motor nerves. Thus the action of the nasal and laryngeal muscles (the dilatator naris and the posterior crico-arytenoid) involves ...the activity of the facial and infe- rior laryngeal nerves respectively, the centers of origin of which lie in the gray matter beneath the floor of the fourth ventricle; the diaphragm and intercostal muscles involve respectively the activity of the phrenic and intercostal nerves, the centers of origin of which lie in the anterior horn of the gray matter of the spinal cord at a level, for the phrenic, of the fourth, fifth, and sixth cervical nerves, and for the intercostals at the level of the thoracic nerves.
