What is stimulated by the reduction in PO2 at altitude?
Peripheral Chemoreceptors
What are the sensory receptors that are responsible for sensations of smell and taste?
chemoreceptors
The receptors in the human nose are chemoreceptors mechanoreceptors nocireceptors which one is corrected?
chemoreceptors - for smell.
What does chemoreceptors play a role in the sense of?
Smell and Taste are the two senses that depend on chemoreceptors
Wha's the substance that binds the central chemoreceptors?
hydrogen ions
What is stimulated by the reduction in PO2 at altitude?
Peripheral Chemoreceptors
Is hypoxia a cardiac arrhthmia?
Hypoxia-->pCO2 increase-->chemoreceptors are stimulated-->VMC stimulated-->trachyarrythmia
If a person's PCO2 remains chronically high as in emphysema the peripheral chemoreceptors become insensitive to hypercapnia and pulmonary ventiliation becomes stimulated by rather than by?
hypoxic drive
What are the sensory receptors that are responsible for sensations of smell and taste?
chemoreceptors
What does chemoreceptors respond to?
An example of direct chemoreceptors are the cells located on the tongue. When people taste food, it is because these cells respond to the chemicals in the food, sending a signal to thebrain to let the brain know about what's happening in the mouth. Specific regions of the mouth have areas which are targeted towards specific tastes, such as salty and sweet. This explains why foods can taste different as they are chewed and swallowed, and also why some foods have an aftertaste, as certain chemicals can take longer to stimulate the chemoreceptors.
The receptors in the human nose are chemoreceptors mechanoreceptors nocireceptors which one is corrected?
chemoreceptors - for smell.
Taste and smell receptors are classified as chemoreceptors because they both respond to?
Chemoreceptors are classified as sensory cells or organs that respond to chemical stimuli. The nose and tongue are both equipped with chemoreceptors.
What does chemoreceptors play a role in the sense of?
Smell and Taste are the two senses that depend on chemoreceptors
Explain the function of chemoreceptors in a regulating breathing?
The function of the chemoreceptors in regulating breathing is that they respond to low levels of oxyhemeglobin.
Where are the central chemoreceptors located?
Central chemoreceptors of the central nervous system are located on the ventrolateral medullary surface.
Why are taste and smell receptors classified as Chemoreceptors because they both respond to?
Chemoreceptors (chemical receptors) respond to chemicals in food and scents.
What chemical are chemoreceptors sensitive to?
THC
