A sensation that seems to fade away when receptors are continuously stimulated?
Sensory Adaptation, which is an adjustment made by the sensory receptors upon continuous stimulation.
What type of receptors do extreme temperatures stimulate?
Extream cold and extream heat feel almost the same because te pain receptors are being stimulated.
Why goiter is more common in women than in men?
the gland in men stimulated by TSH hormone only while in women there is additional estrogen receptors on gland so gland stimulated by TSH and estrogen
What happens when a neuron is stimulated by another neuron?
The cell membrane becomes more permeable to the sodium potassium ions.
What happens when a ligand gated channel is stimulated?
When a ligand-gated channel is stimulated, there is movement toward the extracellular side of the cell membrane. This allows the channel to become permeable to different ions.
What occurs when beta receptors are stimulated?
When beta receptors are stimulated, it decreases the heart rate to treat for low blood pressure.
Cutaneous sensory receptors that reside in the skin are part of what system?
Cutaneous sensory receptors in the skin are part of the somatosensory portion of the nervous system.
What receptors are stimulated when their hairs are bent?
Mechanoreceptors
Receptors stimulated by changes in temperature?
Thermoreceptors
Stimulation of the irritant receptors in the lung can result in?
Irritant receptors:-Irritant receptors lie between airway epithelial cells. They are stimulated by mechanical stimuli, inhaled dusts, cold air, noxious gases and cigarette smoke. The receptors show rapid adaptation when they are continuously stimulated. Impulses travel via myelinated fibers in the vagus nerve. Irritant receptors lie betwIrritant receptors in more peripheral bronchi are insensitive to mechanical irritants, but they are sensitive to chemical stimuli; the pattern is reversed in the central airways. Reflex effects include bronchoconstriction and hyperpnoea.Irritant receptors are also sensitive to histamine and can thus contribute to the bronchoconstrictor response in asthmatic subjects in whom histamine is released from mast cells or other cells.een airway epithelial cells.

What receptors are stimulated during urination?
Nerve receptors are stimulated during urination. This stimulation occurs when the walls of the bladder contract and the urination reflex is automatically activated.
What happens when the receptors in the skin are stimulated?
skin infection
Which is the first structure stimulated in a reflex arc?
Sensory receptors.
When cholinergic receptors are stimulated they?
sodium ions enter the postsynaptic neuron.
How are sound receptors stimulated?
Pain receptors are bare dendrites that react to a certain type of stimulus. Some pain receptors become activated when extremes of heat or cold cause your skin temperature to rise or fall to dangerous levels. Hope this helps!
Can You List 3 Stimuli And The Receptors Used To Detect Them?
Touch - Mechanical receptors Light- Photo receptors Heat- Thermo receptors
The process by which the brain causes a sensation to seem to come from the stimulated receptors is called?
projection
