Chapter 13, Problem 42RQ
Summary Introduction

To describe: The pathway by which a change in arterial H+ concentration independent of altered carbon dioxide influences ventilation.

Introduction: Ventilation is stimulated by increased arterial PCO2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide) in two ways. One pathway involves peripheral chemoreceptors and another pathway involves central chemoreceptors.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The adaptive value of the above mentioned reflex.

Introduction: The blood-brain barrier is penetrated by H+ slowly and it can be penetrated by carbon dioxide readily.
