What else can I help you with?
What do the sensory receptors do?
They detect heat
How can heat be transferred through matter by the collision of atoms?
Since that's what heat is (the motion of atoms), how better to transfer than by random collisions? yes.
In sensory function sensation may be described as?
In sensory function, sensation may be described as somatic. The somatic sensory system incorporates the sensations of heat, cold, touch and pain.
How did observing brownian motion develop a theory about heat and temperature?
Well when you observe brownian motion you can feel the heat and so the theory was developed from the temperature of the heat :) hope I helped
What do peripheral nervous system sensory receptors do?
Sensory receptors provide the connection between the stimulus such as heat, cold, and pain and the CNS.
What is motion of molecules?
Heat.
Is heat conducted better the farther apart the molecules in a substance are?
No, heat is the kinetic energy of molecules, the further apart they are the more difficult it is for them to hit one another so as to pass on the motion energy.
Does the amount of heat in a substance depend on the motion of the molecules?
Yes, the amount of heat in a substance is related to the motion of its molecules. Heat is a form of energy that corresponds to the motion of molecules within a substance. The more heat a substance has, the faster its molecules move.
What are the sensory receptors skin?
They are specialized cells that respond to stimuli AND energize nerve cells that send data to your brain. As to what kinds there are: they include heat and cold (that's two seperate types) touch and pressure, piloreceptors (motion of the hairs on your skin).
How does the kinetic theory of the matter relate to heat transfer?
Kinetic theory and Heat transfer are both in motion, in Kinetic theory all states of matter are in vigorous motion and Heat transfer is associated with the motion of atoms or molecules.
What is one common function of an arthropod's antenn ae?
Arthropods with antenna use them for sensory functions, and commonly for the chemical sense (smell and taste). Antenna function differ for various species but often include detection of motion (vibration), touch, and heat.
What is heat What are units of heat energy called?
Heat is molecular motion; the units are BTU and calories.
