What is the visceral sensory system?
Visceral sensations are: Hunger, Thirst, and Hollow Organ fullness
What is the medical term meaning Muscles located within an organ?
Visceral muscles
What is the primary sensory area function?
It is the area where all your touch senses end up; touch, vibration, temperature, pain, body position. It is organized as a homonculous
What is the meaning of sensory strip?
The sensory strip is located in the human brain close to the frontal lobe. This part of the brain is responsible for controlling the five senses.
What does unconscous mean?
The meaning of unconscious is lacking awareness and the capacity for sensory perception.
Does visceral reflex arcs have two sensory neurons?
No, it has 2 visceral motor neurons. A visceral reflex has a receptor, a sensory neuron, a processing center, and 2 visceral motor neurons.
What is the difference between somatic sensory neurons and visceral sensory neurons?
your face and your face
What part of the cortex is responsible for sensation of a full bladder?
the visceral sensory area
What is the visceral sensory system?
Visceral sensations are: Hunger, Thirst, and Hollow Organ fullness
What does the medical term visceral mean and can you give an example?
Visceral is the term meaning "pertaining to the internal organs."
What sensory receptors are located in blood vessels and visceral organs and their signals are not usually consciously perceived?
Interoceptors or visceroceptors
What Sensory receptors that are located in blood vessels and visceral organs and their signals are not usually consciously perceived?
Interoceptors or visceroceptors
What is the relationship between the visceral peritoneum and the serosa?
Serosa = Visceral Peritoneum Meaning covering the surface of many abdominal organs.
The area of the cortex that is responsible for sensations of the full bladder and the feeling that your lungs will burst when you hold your breath too long is?
visceral sensory cortex
Can atomic neurons be sensory or afferent neurons?
I believe you mean autonomic neurons (part of the ANS) and yes, they can be sensory neurons. Sensory neurons are the same as afferent neurons--meaning they carry signals towards the CNS. Think as afferent as 'approaching'. Anyhow, these neurons sense the conditions of your visceral organs and whatnot. Other wise it would have no information to judge for what signals to send. So yes, autonomic neurons consist of both sensory (afferent) and motor (efferent) neurons.
How do visceral reflex arcs differ from somatic?
An autonomic reflex arc is similar to the somatic kind, but differs principally in the motor output side. The sensory side is similar in that a transducer sends a signal via a nerve fiber into the CNS. As with the somatic arc, this sensory fiber is associated with a pseudo-unipolar neuron in a craniospinal ganglion, usually one of the dorsal root ganglia. In the autonomic arc, the sensory transducer is often located in or associated with visceral organs.
DIvision of the nervous system brings sensory information to the central nervous system?
The afferent neurones or Sensory neurones. Further divided to 2 subtypes, the visceral (from inner organs) and somatic (from skin). There is also the cranial nerves which provide information to the CNS.
