Pain Receptors
What else can I help you with?
What receptors are stimulated by tissue damage?
Nociceptors are stimulated by tissue damage and are also called pain receptorsSourceIntroduction to the Human Bodyby Gerard Tortora and Bryan Derrickson
What the receptors that detect tissue damage?
nerves
What are receptors that detect tissue damage?
nerves
What are the three skin senses?
The three skin senses are touch, temperature, and pain. Touch receptors detect pressure, vibration, and texture, while temperature receptors detect hot and cold sensations. Pain receptors, called nociceptors, respond to tissue damage or injury.
Which of the general categories of sensory receptor are located everywhere in the body except the brain?
Nociceptors are sensory receptors that are located throughout the body except for within the brain. These receptors are responsible for detecting pain and tissue damage.
Which are the sensory receptors responds to the distortion or bending of tissue?
Mechanoreceptors are the sensory receptors that respond to the distortion or bending of tissue. They are specialized to detect mechanical stimuli such as pressure, vibration, and stretching in the body.
What are the receptors that detect tissue?
nerves
Receptors that are widely distributed in body tissue except the brain are?
Adrenergic receptors, such as alpha and beta receptors, are widely distributed in body tissue except for the brain. These receptors are involved in the regulation of various physiological processes, including blood pressure, heart rate, and smooth muscle contraction.
What makes a tissue a target tissue?
A tissue is considered a target tissue when it has specific receptors for a particular hormone or chemical signal. These receptors allow the tissue to respond to the signal by initiating specific biological responses. Target tissues are often the primary sites where the hormone or signal exerts its effects in the body.
What is another name for nociceptors?
Nociceptors are also known as pain receptors. These specialized nerve cells detect potentially damaging stimuli and send signals to the brain warning of potential tissue damage, resulting in the sensation of pain.
Are there nervous tissue in the kidney?
Yes, there are pressure receptors in the kidneys.
What cerberal cortex structures have pain receptors?
Skin and Internal tissues. Not in the nervous tissue of the brain, which lack of pain receptors.
