Which of the following statements is NOT true about the sensory systems?
Chemoreceptors are responsible for our senses of taste and smell
Mechanoreceptors respond to physical motion and changes in shape
A constant sensory stimulus may eventually lead to a decreased response thanks to sensory adaptation
All of our senses except for sight travel through the thalamus where they eventually go on to the primary sensory area of the cerebrum
Our sensory systems respond to external stimuli like sight and sound, but also internal stimuli like blood sugar levels or muscle contractions
The sensory system is involved in all except
Initiation of reflex movement
Initiation of voluntary movement
Learning process
Initiation of emotional response
Which of the following types of cells has the main function of carrying a signal from a sensory receptor to the central nervous system?
Sensory Neuron
Interneuron

- The sensory contex is the area of your brain that processes sensations from your body. Each section of the sensory cortex processes information from a different body part. Larger body parts, such as you back or thighs, do not necessarily receive more space the sensory cortex. Explain why larger areas of your body such as your stomach back or thighs do not have a large space in the sensory cortex of the brain and why is it important that these areas cannot distinguish minor sensations.arrow_forwardWearing eye glasses for a prolonged period of time and then not realizing they are on your head is best explained by what phenomenon?
