Chemoreceptors bind to specific chemical substances, typically gases, ions, or molecules relevant to physiological processes. For example, in the respiratory system, chemoreceptors respond to changes in carbon dioxide, oxygen, and pH levels in the blood. In taste and smell, chemoreceptors interact with food molecules and odorants, respectively, to trigger sensory signals. This binding initiates a cascade of physiological responses that help maintain homeostasis and perception.
