. Why is it important to have sensory receptors for pain and pressure in your internal organs?
Wiki User
∙ 7y ago
Your internal organs have several kinds of sensory receptors. These receptors respond to touch, pressure, pain, and temperature by picking up the changes and transmitting impulses to the brain or spinal cord.
it is important so you know when something is going on in your body

The sensations of touch and pressure are picked up by receptors located in?
sensory receptor
Cells called what detect changes in the environment known as stimuli?
they are called receptors.
What is the function of the sensory organ?
Meissner's corpuscles; pain and touch receptors, Pacinian corpuscles; pressure receptors, hair follicle receptors; light touch receptors, Rufini's corpuscles; respond to deep pressurethat recieve the stimulus
What are the sensory receptors for the tongue?
cheese
Which sensory receptors are constantly being replaced?
olfactory, receptors and taste buds
Detect changes of internal or external stimulus?
sensory receptors
Sensory receptors that respond to changes in blood pressure are called?
Baroreceptors
The sensations of touch and pressure are picked up by receptors located in?
sensory receptor
What is the sensory receptor in the eyes What is the sensory receptor in the nose What is the sensory receptors in the tongue What is the sensory receptors in the skin?
the sensory receptors for the eyes are the cornea and the optic nerve
How do the sensory receptors in your fingers differentiate between different objects?
You have several sensory receptors and they all measure differences in pressure, displacement, and movement. The main ones are the Merkle, Meissner, Pacinian, Raffini, Krause, Hair follicle receptors, and the pain receptors.
How does the sensory receptors act as transducers?
sensory receptors detect changes(light levels, pressure on skin) in our surroundings. they convert one form of energy into another particular form of energy.
Transmits sensory impulses from pressure receptors of the carotid artery?
Glossopharyngeal cranial nerve
What sensory receptors are found in the epidermis and detect light pressure and vibration?
Meissner's corpuscles
What happens if our skin loses its sensory nature?
-The skin contains numerous sensory receptors which receive information from the outside environment -the sensory receptors of the skin are concerned with at least 5 senses:Pain, heat, cold, touch and pressure
What are sensory receptors?
A sensory receptor is a sensory nerve ending that responds to a stimulus in the internal or external environment of an organism. The sensory receptor initiates sensory transduction by creating graded potentials or action potentials in the same cell or in an adjacent one.
Cells called what detect changes in the environment known as stimuli?
they are called receptors.
What are the sensory receptors of the eyes ears nose skin and tongue?
The receptors of the eye are photo receptors, the ear has auditory receptors, the nose has olfactory (smell) receptors, the skin has tactile (touch)and thermo- (temperature) receptors and the tongue has gustatory (taste) receptors.
