What are sensory receptors that send signals to the brain?

semicircular canals


What section of the ear is lined with sensory cells?

The section of the ear known as the cochlea is the part of the ear with sensory cells. Vibrations from outside the ear, go into the ear and vibrate the parts of the ear, then the vibration continues to the cochlea, which is a spiral-shaped sensory organ within the ear that the vibration goes through. The nerves in the cochlea translate the vibrations into nerve signals, which continue to the brain where it is processed into recognizable sound, such as speech.


Which sequence best describes the change in signals as sensory neurons in the eye respond to an external stimulus?

The sequence typically involves the conversion of external stimulus (light) into electrical signals by photoreceptor cells in the retina. These signals then pass through the optic nerve to the brain, where they are processed and interpreted, resulting in the perception of visual information.


Which type of sensory information does not pass through the thalamus?

A person's sense of smell does not first need to be processed by the Thalamus before entering the Cortex. This is often times why a smell can cause a memory recall faster than other kinds of sensory input.


What sensory neurons to motor neurons?

Sensory neurons (afferent neurons) send sensory signals from the body to the Central Nervous System. Their cell bodies are always found in a ganglion outside the central nervous system. Motor neurons (efferent neurons) send signals from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands of the body. Their cell bodies are always located in the central nervous system.

What is the function of the nerve cord in an earthworm?

The nerve cord in an earthworm performs the same task as the nervous system of any animal. The function of the nervous system is to bring sensory information to the brain, where it is processed. Then, the brain sends signals to the body via the nervous system and those signals cause the animal to move.

Where are GPS satellite signals processed?

GPS signals are processed in the GPS unit and displayed, and they are also processed via three Global Position Satellites. All four units work together and process GPS signals (some to the satellites from the GPS, and some from the satellites to the GPS) to create an accurate position.
