Explain the difference between slow adapting and fast adapting receptors for touch. Give an example of a situation where each type of receptor would be activated.

Discriminate between different types of stimuli and their respective receptors.

What are receptors? Discuss how these receptors respond to stimuli.

How does a neuron communicate a stimulus's strength?

Which of the following correctly describes receptors in the skin? Select one: O a. All receptor types are spread uniformly throughout dermal tissue. Ob. Pacinian corpuscles, Ruffini endings, and Krause end bulbs detect pain. O c. One type of nerve cell detects both hot and cold. O d. Temperature receptors are free nerve endings in the dermis. Oe. Meissner corpuscles and Merkel disks detect fine touch.

List the different types of receptors  and the type of stimulus to which they respond.

Describe sensory adaptation and then give one example of a case in which one might interpret this to be an advantage and one that could be considered a disadvantaged.

Use the image to answer this question: This structure changes the odorant molecule stimuli to an action potential. Olfactory cilia Olfactory tract A Mitral cells Olfactory neurons Path of inhaled air containing F odorant molecules T Ethmoid bone Filaments of olfactory nerve Connective tissue Olfactory gland C Olfactory receptor D Dendrite E Mucus

The list below classifies sensory receptors by the stimulus that activates them. Using your textbook or other resource, name the receptor for each stimulus type. activated by touch, pressure, vibration, and stretch. activated by changes in temperature activated by light or changes in light wavelengths activated by changes in chemical concentrations in a solution activated by tissue injury or situations that may lead to tissue injury

According to the stimulithey collect how are thesensory receptors classified?
