The Walker Art Center is home to an in-depth collection of Oldenburgâs work, ranging from early performance-related objects to large-scale outdoor sculpture to drawings, prints, multiples, and rare studies.
Chemoreceptors detect the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood by monitoring the concentrations of hydrogen ions in the blood. Learning Objective. Describe the role of chemoreceptors in the regulation of breathing. An increase in carbon dioxide concentration leads to a decrease in the pH of blood due to the production of H+ ions from carbonic acid.
A pH meter is a scientific instrument that measures the hydrogen-ion activity in water-based solutions, indicating its acidity or alkalinity expressed as pH. The pH meter measures the difference in electrical potential between a pH electrode and a reference electrode, and so the pH meter is sometimes referred to as a potentiometric pH meter. The difference in electrical potential relates to the acidity or pH of the solution. The pH meter is used in many applications ranging from laboratory experimentation to quality control.
