One thing to notice is that there are no peripheral oxygen chemoreceptors in framework of chemoreception that pertains to the medulla oblongata. Thus, there would not be a direct route for neurotransmission of peripheral oxygen chemoreceptors as do the carbon dioxide chemoreceptors located by the medulla oblongata which is connected to the brain. Overall, the chemoreceptors are the integral components that relate to both respiratory systems. Knowledge of how chemoreceptors function and work with action potentials, their processing, monitoring, limitations, and also the points at which they activate reflexes and respiratory neurotransmissions allows for a three dimensional view to be established as to how the body uses the two respiratory drives. Chemoreceptors are the materials that delegate the power of the Hypoxic Drive and how effective it is.


Above is a picture of the way neurotransmission is induced by blood CO2 levels.
