Consider the characters of a respiratory control center in humans:
I. It is located in pons
II. It moderates the functions of respiratory rhythm center
III. Its absence results in an increase in depth of respiration

The respiratory control center is:

1. Pneumotaxic center

2. Apneustic center

3. Chemosensitive zone

4. Dorsal group
