What is a chemoreceptor?
sensing the oxygen
What receptor can detect changes in hydrogen ion concentration?
The receptor that can detect changes in hydrogen ion concentration is the chemoreceptor, specifically the peripheral chemoreceptors located in the carotid bodies and aortic bodies. These chemoreceptors can sense changes in pH levels caused by alterations in carbon dioxide levels and subsequently regulate breathing to maintain homeostasis.

What means chemoreceptor?
Chemoreceptores can detect chemical stimuli.
Why is Carbidopa admistered with L-Dopa?
L-Dopa is a prodrug used to treat Parkinson's Disease. It crosses the blood brain barrier with the aid of Phe-Trp-L-aromatic acid transporters and is then turned into dopamine through decarboxylation. However, it is also capable of producing large amounts of dopamine in peripheral areas by stimulating the chemoreceptor trigger zone and these dopamine can produce side effects in peripheral body parts. Carbidopa is hence added to inhibit DOPA decarboxylase in peripheral areas so that there will be fewer of these side effects.
What part of the brainstem that receives information from the chemoreceptor trigger zone?
Medulla Oblangota
What would a chemoreceptor allow you to do?
detect smell
What is chemoreceptor trigger zone?
The chemoreceptor trigger zone is a bilateral set of centers in the brainstem lying under the floor of the fourth ventricle.CTZ has connection with vomiting center and play indirectly to stimulate vomiting.. Electrical stimulation of these centers does not induce vomiting, but application of emetic drugs does - if and only if the vomition centers are intact. The chemoreceptor trigger zones function as emetic chemoreceptors for the vomition centers - chemical abnormalities in the body (e.g. emetic drugs, uremia, hypoxia and diabetic ketoacidosis) are sensed by these centers, which then send excitatory signs to the vomition centers. Many of the antiemetic drugs act at the level of the chemoreceptor trigger zone.
What is the name of the type of receptor that responds to changes in the concentration of chemicals?
The name of the type of receptor that responds to changes in the concentration of chemicals is a chemoreceptor. These receptors are found in various parts of the body, such as the nose and taste buds, and they help detect and transmit signals related to smell and taste.
What is the function of peripheral milling?
What is the function of peripheral milling? product of peripheral milling
Is memory card reader a peripheral and non peripheral?
peripheral device
Where is location of the perineurium?
The perineurium is found in the peripheral nervous system. It is a membrane which forms a protective sheath around the fascicles (bundles of nerve fibres).
