Difference between Central chemoreceptors and Chemoreceptor

Central chemoreceptors vs. Chemoreceptor

Central chemoreceptors of the central nervous system, located on the ventrolateral medullary surface in the vicinity of the exit of the 9th and 10th cranial nerves, are sensitive to the pH of their environment. A chemoreceptor, also known as chemosensor, is a specialized sensory receptor cell which transduces (responds to) a chemical substance (endogenous or induced) and generates a biological signal.

Similarities between Central chemoreceptors and Chemoreceptor

Central chemoreceptors and Chemoreceptor have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Carbon dioxide, Medulla oblongata, Peripheral chemoreceptors, PH.

Carbon dioxide

Carbon dioxide (chemical formula) is a colorless gas with a density about 60% higher than that of dry air.

Medulla oblongata

The medulla oblongata (or medulla) is located in the brainstem, anterior and partially inferior to the cerebellum.

Peripheral chemoreceptors

Peripheral chemoreceptors (of the carotid and aortic bodies) are so named because they are sensory extensions of the peripheral nervous system into blood vessels where they detect changes in chemical concentrations.

PH

In chemistry, pH is a logarithmic scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.

Central chemoreceptors and Chemoreceptor Comparison

Central chemoreceptors has 15 relations, while Chemoreceptor has 70. As they have in common 4, the Jaccard index is 4.71% = 4 / (15 + 70).
