For example, if you have a species with a peak which had an intensity 10 units, when the polarisers were parallel, and an intensity of 1 unit when the polarisers were perpendicular, then the depolarisation ratio would be 1 / 10 = 0.1, this peak would be highly polarised band.

In normoxia, haem-oxygenase generates carbon monoxide ( CO ), CO activates the large conductance calcium-activated potassium channel, BK . Falls in CO that occur as a consequence of hypoxia would lead to closure of this potassium channel and this would lead to membrane depolarisation and consequence activation of the carotid body.
