What if your senses of hearing and touch both depend on nerve impulses being generated by?

If both senses of hearing and touch depend on nerve impulses being generated by sensory receptors, any damage or impairment to these receptors or the nerve pathways carrying the impulses could result in a loss or reduction in hearing and tactile sensation. This can lead to difficulties in perceiving sound and touch stimuli accurately. Treatment may involve addressing the underlying cause of the nerve impairment or exploring interventions to help compensate for the sensory deficits.


What is the function of a sensory neurone?

The sensory nerves are nerves that let you feel things and it sends signals to your brain when you feel something touching you.Sensory neurons are responsible for carrying impulses from the sense organs to the brain and spinal cord.A sensory neuron carries an impulse from the receptor to the coordinator (CNS), thus to relay neuron ( SIMPLY CONNECTS THE TWO NEURONS) -also see SYNAPSE and motor neuron to effector organ etc. This can be summed up as (reflex arc) - passage taken RECEPTOR - SENSORY NEURON - RELAY NEURON - COORDINATOR - MOTOR NEURON - EFFECTOR ORGAN - RESPONSE.


What is the sensory function of flour?

The sensory function of flour is to provide a solid textture for the product and provide structure for the food.


Can a nerve Cell replace itself after injury?

One of two thing can happen (depending on just how damaged). If it is a sensory nerve, that will not carry sensory impulses to the CNS. You may have a numb feeling in a small area or a very large area. If it is a motor nerve, you may not be able to move a muscle (or a group of muscles). That really is paralyzed means.

What does a sensory neurons do?

Sensory neurons are nerves that take in information from either the outside world, or from within the body itself. Sensory neurons communicate this information to the brain which then issues a response. Sensory nerves take in and communicate information about heat, cold, pressure, pain, position and more. detect, feel, and smell

Is an effector of a skeletal muscle a somatic reflex?

Yes, the effector of a skeletal muscle is part of a somatic reflex. Somatic reflexes involve the contraction of skeletal muscles in response to a stimulus, and the effector in this case is the skeletal muscle itself that carries out the response.

What process is most similar to cloning?

The process most similar to cloning is somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). This technique involves transferring the nucleus of a somatic cell into an egg cell that has had its nucleus removed. This results in the creation of a genetically identical organism to the donor of the somatic cell.

When sensory nerves are cut or removed in the stomach, changes in eating habits will occur. Hunger itself will still exist though.
