carotid
I will illistrate my answers with an example: When an individual exercises, the concentration of CO2 in the blood increases, this lowers the pH, making it more acidic. Chemoreceptors in the carotid arteries and aorta detect this decrease in pH. Nerve impulses are sent to the centre of the Medulla Oblongata that increases heart rate. Nerve impulses are then sent via the sympathetic nervous system to the sinoatrial node, this increases the heart rate. Therefore this increases the blood flow to the lungs, CO2 can therefore be removed from the blood by the alveoli in the lungs.
Baroreceptors
There are thousands of arteries in the human body ranging in size. The biggest artery is the Aorta which is located at the top of the heart. An artery is a vessel that carries oxygenated blood.
Exactly i also cannot say but its because arteries- the blood vessels are thicker as compared to veins. Moreover the veins are more of superficially located as compared to arteries. We can also see the arteries though, look at the wrist joint of your hand (In most people you can see) you will see 2 thick lines running towards your elbow, but it will quickly disappear. These are nothing but the arteries.
The mesenteric arteries go to the mesentery. The mesentery is a fold of the peritoneum that pins the stomach, small intestine, pancreas, spleen, and other organs to the posterior wall (back wall) of the abdomen.
Chemoreceptors that detect low oxygen levels in the body are located in the carotid bodies, which are small clusters of cells located near the carotid arteries in the neck, and in the aortic bodies near the aortic arch. These chemoreceptors send signals to the brain to trigger breathing adjustments to increase oxygen intake.
Central chemoreceptors of the central nervous system are located on the ventrolateral medullary surface.

The receptors that are likely to detect changes in carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration in the blood are chemoreceptors located in the aorta and carotid arteries. These chemoreceptors detect changes in the pH of the blood and send signals to the brain to regulate breathing heart rate and other bodily functions. The receptors are sensitive to the following: Carbon dioxide concentration Oxygen concentration pH of the bloodThe chemoreceptors are located in the walls of the aorta and carotid arteries and are sensitive to the changes in carbon dioxide and oxygen concentrations. When the concentrations of these two gases change the chemoreceptors send signals to the brain which then responds with appropriate adjustments in breathing rate and heart rate.
Chemoreceptors are the receptors that monitor the pH, carbon dioxide, and oxygen concentrations of arterial blood. These chemoreceptors are located in the carotid bodies and aortic bodies, which are specialized structures in the walls of the carotid arteries and aorta, respectively. They sense changes in these parameters and send signals to the brain to regulate breathing and maintain homeostasis.
In the AORTA and in the CAROTID ARTERY
M. de Burgh Daly has written: 'Peripheral arterial chemoreceptors and respiratory-cardiovascular integration' -- subject(s): Arteries, Cardiopulmonary system, Cardiovascular system, Chemoreceptors, Physiology, Respiration
Chemoreceptors in the body, specifically central chemoreceptors in the brain and peripheral chemoreceptors in the arteries, can detect changes in blood oxygen levels. When oxygen levels drop below a certain threshold, these receptors send signals to the brain to increase respiratory rate and depth to bring in more oxygen.
Chemoreceptors that regulate breathing are located in the carotid bodies near the carotid arteries in the neck and in the aortic bodies near the aorta in the chest. These receptors sense changes in oxygen, carbon dioxide, and pH levels in the blood and send signals to the brain to adjust breathing rate and depth accordingly.
chemoreceptors
So there are two types of chemoreceptors that can sense blood oxygen level changes: aortic bodies and carotid bodies. Aortic bodies are located along the aortic arch. The specific cells in aortic bodies that detect blood gas changes are called glomus cells and they sense the gas changes, then give feedback to the medulla oblongata, which then regulates breathing and blood pressure. Carotid bodies are located at the fork of the carotid artery. It also uses glomus cells to sense differences in oxygen's partial pressure and then sends signals to the medulla oblongata.
Yes, olfaction, which is the sense of smell, results from the stimulation of chemoreceptors located in the olfactory epithelium in the nasal cavity. These chemoreceptors detect molecules in the air, triggering neural signals that are sent to the brain for interpretation as different scents.
