Aerial tension

Aerial O2 concentration
D
H+
High-Yield Explanation
The central chemoreceptors monitor the H+ concentration of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), including the brain interstitial fluid.The receptors in the carotid and aoic bodies(peripheral chemoreceptors) are stimulated by a rise in the PCO2 or H+ concentration of aerial blood or a decline in its PO2.Ref: Ganong's Review of Medical Physiology, Twenty-Third Edition, Page number: 627, 628
