Cells called what detect changes in the environment known as stimuli?
they are called receptors.
What are the cells that detect smell called?
chemoreceptor.
Which are the sensory receptors responds to the distortion or bending of tissue?
The sensory receptors that respond to the distortion or bending of tissue are called nociceptors. Nociceptors send pain signals to the brain and spinal cord.
What are nerves carrying impulses from the sense organs called?
Sensory nerves, or the receptor nerves, as they are only made up of sensory neurons. Receptors are the specialised structures at the end of the sensory nerves that receive the stimuli and convert it into an electrical signal to be conducted by the nerve as a nerve impulse.
What microscopic vessels composed of simple squamous epithelial cells are called?
Tunica Intima is the innermost layer of the wall of the artery. The wall is consist of simple squamous epithelium which is called endothelium.
Cells called what detect changes in the environment known as stimuli?
they are called receptors.
What are the distal ends of sensory neurons called?
They are called receptors
What is the conscious awareness of stimuli received by sensory receptors called?
Sensation is Conscious awareness of stimuli received by sensory receptors
What is the receptor of the human nose?
The sensory receptors for your nose is the semicircular canals and the cochlea
What is The process by which your sensory receptors receive and process information is called?
Sensation
What is a decreased sensitivity that occurs when a stimulus is continuously applied to sensory receptors called?
It all depends on the sensory receptors affected by continuous stimulus applied. It can cause complete damage to the receptors and or prevent them from receiving the correct signals.
What are the cells that detect smell called?
chemoreceptor.
Sensory receptors that respond to changes in blood pressure are called?
Baroreceptors
Which are the sensory receptors responds to the distortion or bending of tissue?
The sensory receptors that respond to the distortion or bending of tissue are called nociceptors. Nociceptors send pain signals to the brain and spinal cord.
The sensory receptors specialized to respond to light energy are?
Sensory receptors are a type of sensory nerve. The sensory receptors that are specialized to respond to light energy are called stimuli.
Your sense organs have specialised cells called?
sensory receptors - specialized nerve cells
What is the adjustment of sensory receptors to continuous stimulation by decreasing their signals to the brain called?
Adaption
