Location of the major baroreceptors.

Description
Increased blood pressure stretches arteries. This activates baroreceptors in the arteries, which send action potentials to the medulla oblongata in the brain. Nerve signals from the brain then initiate changes in heart function and total peripheral resistance that help restore blood pressure to normal.
