What sensation would expect to feel if a warm pinhead was pressed on to a touch receptor in your skin?
You would likely feel a sharp pricking sensation initially, followed by warmth as the pinhead heats up. The touch receptor would send signals to your brain indicating both the pressure and temperature changes.
Receptor touch impluse and stimuli which order do they go in?
touch-stimuli-receptor-impulse
What is 'modality of sensation'?
Each type of the principal type of sensation that we experience pain , touch, sight ,sound and so forth is called modalities of sensation. We experience these different modalities of sensation, while nerve fibers transmit only impulses. How is it that different nerve fibers transmit different modalities of sensation? 1. Each nerve tract terminates at a specific point in the CNS, and the type of sensation is determined by the point in the nervous system to which the fiber leads. So touch stimulus is carried by nerve impulses in the touch area of the brain. Similarly fibers from the eyes (retina) terminates in the "visual Corteses" of the brain, touch stimuli carried by nerve impulses in the "touch" area of the brain. 2.Moreover, each receptor organ is specialized to receive a particular type of stimuli and this is carried to the particular area of the bran.
What skin receptor cells hep us to touch?
the skin receptor that helps us to touch is our skin receptors
Where are the receptor cells for touch located?
skin
What do the receptor cells do?
Receptor cells are specialized cells that detect specific stimuli, such as light, sound, touch, taste, and smell. They convert these stimuli into electrical signals that can be interpreted by the brain, allowing us to perceive our environment and respond to it accordingly.
Unique touch receptor formed from stratum basal cell?
A unique touch receptor formed from stratum basale cell (and a nerve fiber) is a merkel cell.

What is the function of Merkel's discs?

What is a Specialized area of sensory neuron that detects a specific stimulus?
A specialized area of sensory neuron that detects a specific stimulus is called a sensory receptor. These receptors are designed to respond to specific forms of stimulation, such as touch, light, or sound, and convert the energy from these stimuli into electrical signals that the nervous system can interpret.
