Q. Statement I: Chemosensitive area is situated adjacent to the rhythm centre which is highly sensitive to $CO_2$ and hydrogen ions.
Statement II: Receptors associated with aortic arch and carotid artery can recognise changes in $O_2$ and lt concentration and send necessary signals to the rhythm centre

Breathing and Exchange of Gases

Solution:

• Chemosensitive area is situated adjacent to the rhythm centre which is highly sensitive to $CO_2$ and hydrogen ions.
• Receptors associated with aortic arch and carotid artery can recognise changes in $CO_2$ and $H^{+}$ concentrated and send necessary signals to the rhythm centre for remedial actions.
