False. There are more sensitive touch receptors on the tip of your finger than on your back
rods are our or dim light and peripheral vision receptors
MECHANOCEPTOR
Yes, your lips actually have the greatest number of nerve (sensory) receptors followed by your hands. Conversely, areas such as your back are not nearly as sensitive to sensory stimulation.
I think there are receptors in your small intestine that are sensitive to amino acids, lipids, and small sugars; gastrin is released when these receptors are activated. Also, distension of the stomach also causes gastrin secretion.
If a cell has α-adrenergic receptors, it is sensitive to
tension
stretch
Rods are more light-sensitive and less color-sensitive than are cones.
taste buds and nose
photoreceptors
chemoreceptors
The touch receptors are grouped by type and include Mechanoreceptors (sensitive to pressure, vibration and slip), Thermoreceptors (sensitive to changes in temperature), and Nocioreceptors (responsible for pain).
the detect smell
Gustatory receptors are found on the tongue and pharynx and are taste receptors. They sense particles of foodstuffs dissolved in saliva and provide us with the sense of taste.
taste buds and nose
False. There are more sensitive touch receptors on the tip of your finger than on your back
