Receptors detecting chemical changes in the environment.

Key Functions:

• Monitors blood gas and pH levels.
• Regulates respiratory and metabolic functions.

Interacting Systems & Components:

• Carotid Body Chemoreceptor (specific type)
• Respiratory System (breathing regulation)
• Circulatory System (blood monitoring)
• Sensory Receptor Atlas (population counts by chemoreceptor type)
