the response to co2 excess and low o2 conc.is made to homeostasis by increased cardiac output increased pulmonary ventilation(in response to chemoreceptor of carotid sinus and lung cavity).....thus theres increased rate of breathing nishantstag@gmail.com mbbs Iyear csmmu Cyanosis is a blue color of the skin caused by an excess of unoxygenated blood. The less oxygen that's contained in the blood, the bluer it will appear. The skin over oxygenated (red) blood is pink. In response to a state of low oxygen in the blood, the breathing rate increases. This has the purpose of putting more oxygen in the blood stream (via the lungs).

What is a blue baby in medical terms?

"Blue baby" is an old-fashioned lay term for newborns with cyanotic heart defects. A cyanotic heart defect is one in which the patient is a bit blue in color (cyanotic) due to inadequate oxygenation of the blood. In cyanotic heart defects, this hypoxemia is due to inappropriate mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the heart. One possible cause is the vetricular septal defect (sometimes abbreviated VSD); a lay term for a VSD is a "hole in the heart."
