choose all of the following that are regulated when arterial sense organs monitor blood chemistry and blood pressure.

• blood sugar level
• heart rate
• body temperature
• respiration rate

Explanation:

Arterial sense organs (like baroreceptors and chemoreceptors) monitor blood pressure and chemistry (e.g., O₂, CO₂, pH). Heart rate and respiration rate are regulated by feedback from these sensors: if blood pressure is low or blood chemistry is off, heart rate (to adjust cardiac output) and respiration rate (to adjust gas exchange) change. Blood sugar is regulated by pancreatic sensors/hormones, and body temperature by thermoreceptors/hypothalamus, not directly by arterial blood chemistry/pressure monitoring.

Answer:

B. Heart rate, D. Respiration rate
