What are all the sensory receptors and the stimulus that belong to each sensory?
TiffaniMarckfb0932
There are a number of sensory receptors and these perceive:
1. light (eye)
2. sound (ear)
3. balance (eye + ear +joints)
4. pain (many locations, some surface and some deep)
5. touch (usually light)
6. pressure (usually deep)
7. taste (tongue and mouth)
8. smell (nose and throat)
9. proprioception (usually joints and muscles)

What process occurs as specialized receptor cells in the retina respond to only some features movement colors or edges of each stimulus?
sensory reduction
What sensory receptors are used by a runner during a marathon?
Two types of receptors that is the phasic receptors and the tonic receptors are used during running that keeps the body aware of the psychic of the body during each phase of the running.The phasic receptors include the rapidly adapting paccinian corpuscles which keeps the body aware of the instantaneous physical changes and the tonic receptors include the muscle spindles and the joint capsules which keep the psychic aware of the muscle tension and the stability of the joints.
What is the relationship between a physical stimulus and the kinds of sensory responses that result from it?
There are five main senses that people experience: sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing. Each sense is associated with different physical stimuli. For example, the sense of sight is associated with light waves, the sense of smell is associated with volatile molecules, the sense of taste is associated with dissolved molecules, the sense of touch is associated with pressure or temperature changes, and the sense of hearing is associated with sound waves. The relationship between a physical stimulus and the resulting sensory response is that the physical stimulus is converted into a neural signal by the sense organ, and then this neural signal is interpreted by the brain to produce the sensory response. The specific response depends on which sense is involved and what the physical stimulus is.
What are the sensory receptors called that detect change?
It is the Vestibular System, a series of fluid filled tubes in the inner ear that connect with each other and the cochlear duct containing hair cells that detect changes in motion.
What is the portion of the neuron that accepts incoming impulses?
The receptor is the part of the neuron (usually a dendrite) that detects a stimulus. Dendrites are extensions of the main cellular body of the neuron called the soma; the impulse is passed on to another neuron at the other end, which is called the axon. Neurons transmit impulses to each other via electro-chemical connections to each other that are known as synapses.
What is the process of pairing a neutral stimulus wth an unconditioned stimulus in a way that each produce the same response?
conditioning

Why are there no pain receptors in the brain?
There are pain receptors in the brain. In fact if the brain didn't get and give the message to you that you were in pain it wouldn't register. The reason why we feel pain is to alert us that something is wrong and needs to be tended to. A nociceptor is a sensory receptor that responds to potentially damaging stimuli by sending nerve signals to the spinal cord and brain. This causes the perception of pain. There are also proteins in your brain called NMDA receptors which allow your neurons to communicate with each other. The neurons talk to each other which in turn reaches the NMDA receptors. The NMDA listens to the neurons and if sufficiently excited ions are expelled from a channel of receptors. Calcium ions then flow through the channel into the listening neuron at the synapse (pathway between the neurons) causing the pathway to be strengthened and giving you a loud signal (hot stove = pain!).
