Answer:

The answer is Baroreceptors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Blood pressure is regulated in part by baroreceptors, which are nerve endings sensitive to sudden changes in blood pressure, that is, they are pressure receptors. They are located in the walls of the internal common carotid artery (carotid sinus) and the Aorta (aortic arch).
