According to Scott(2013), the body has a respiratory center in the brain called the Medulla Oblongata and the Pons regions. The medulla sends signals to the muscles that is involved in breathing, and the pons controls the rate of breathing. These two regions in the brain can affect or have negative effect on oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the bloodstream.
The body responds to low oxygen when there is there is dilation of blood vessels, which decreases blood pressure. This is also known as vasodilation. Thus, the blood vessels relax and widens enabling greater blood flow or the tissue allows greater perfusion by the use of nitric oxide.
Hypoxemia which is also known as low oxygen level can affect the brain, liver, and other organs can
