What are hair cells and what is their relationship to the auditory nerve?
the out hair cells (OHC)push against the tectorial membrane in response to efferent innervation from the CNS the seventh cranial nerve it's the inner hair cells (IHC) that provide the sense of hearing afferent innervation to the CNS the eighth cranial nerve
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 happen if nerve cells sense that the core body temperature has dropped below 37?
the hypothalamus produces chemicals that signal cells throughout the body to speed up their activities
What does the word sensory mean?
What does sensory mean? 1. relating to sensation and the sense organs - "heightened sensory awareness" 2. involving or derived from the senses 3. connected with the physical senses of touch, smell, taste, hearing and seeing 4. of, pertaining to, or transmitting stimuli to the senses. 5. conveying nerve impulses from the sense organs to the nerve centers - "sensory neurons"
What is the function of the parietal lobe?
The parietal lobe receives sensory input for touch and body position. It integrates sensory information from different modalities, especially determining spatial sense and navigation. It is associated with movement, orientation, recognition, perception of stimuli.
Your sense organs have specialised cells called?
sensory receptors - specialized nerve cells
What are the special cells of tes sense organ that receive stimuli from the environmen?
The special cells of the sense organs that receive stimuli from the environment are called receptors. The receptors detect different changes in the surrounding envronment and stimulate the neurons to perform the proper tasks.
What cells carry impulses from sense organs to the brain and spinal cord?
Neurons (nerve cells)
Photoreceptors are nerve cells most related to a human's sense of?
sight
How do you spell nerve?
That is the correct spelling of "nerve" (sense cells and organs, or audacity).
When you age do you ever lose your sense of touch?
yes, if your nerve cells get damaged
What cells let use sense pain?
A person senses pain, pressure, cold, hot by using nerve cells under the skin.
What are hair cells and what is their relationship to the auditory nerve?
the out hair cells (OHC)push against the tectorial membrane in response to efferent innervation from the CNS the seventh cranial nerve it's the inner hair cells (IHC) that provide the sense of hearing afferent innervation to the CNS the eighth cranial nerve
What is the nerve for smell?
The olfactory nerves are cranial nerves( arise from the brain ). olfactory nerve is the first nerve among the all cranial nerves. olfactory nerves passes sense of smell through nerve impulses( chemical=neurotransmitters, and electrical signals ).
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 do motor nerve cells do?
Nerve cells are part of the nervous system in your body. The main role of a nerve cell is to pass information through the cells to other cells in your body to perform a function. For example, a nerve cell may transmit an electrical signal from one nerve to another in your body, and send it to the brain.
A concentration of sense organs and nerve cells in anterior end of the body known as?
Cephalization
