What else can I help you with?
What is a decreased sensitivity that occurs when a stimulus is continuously applied to sensory receptors called?
It all depends on the sensory receptors affected by continuous stimulus applied. It can cause complete damage to the receptors and or prevent them from receiving the correct signals.
The stimulation of the sense organs is?
The stimulation of the sense organs is the process by which sensory receptors detect external stimuli (such as light, sound, touch, taste, and smell) and convert them into electrical signals that can be interpreted by the brain. This process allows us to perceive and make sense of the world around us.
What occurs when beta receptors are stimulated?
Stimulation of beta receptors leads to increased heart rate, relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle, and release of glucose from the liver. This can result in increased blood flow to muscles, improved airway function, and a boost in energy levels to support physical activity.
How are pain receptors different from somatic receptors?
Pain receptors, also known as nociceptors, detect tissue damage or potentially harmful stimuli, signaling pain responses. Somatic receptors, on the other hand, sense touch, pressure, vibration, temperature, and proprioception to help the body perceive its external environment and respond accordingly. Pain receptors specifically respond to noxious stimuli, while somatic receptors respond to various tactile sensations.
What is the effect of parasympathetic stimulation on this salivary glands?
Parasympathetic stimulation increases saliva production in the salivary glands by causing the release of acetylcholine, which binds to receptors on the gland cells and triggers the secretion of saliva. This response helps with digestion and keeps the mouth moist.
What is A phenomenon found in sensory perception in which the receptors gradually stop responding to continuous stimulation?
Sensory adaptation
A sensation that seems to fade away when receptors are continuously stimulated?
This phenomenon is known as sensory adaptation. When receptors are consistently exposed to the same stimulus, they become less responsive over time, leading to a decrease in perception of that sensation. This allows the receptors to remain sensitive to changes in the environment rather than being overwhelmed by constant input.
What is a decreased sensitivity that occurs when a stimulus is continuously applied to sensory receptors called?
It all depends on the sensory receptors affected by continuous stimulus applied. It can cause complete damage to the receptors and or prevent them from receiving the correct signals.
Stimulation of sour receptors occurs in response to?
lemons
Seeing is initiated by the stimulation of what?
Light receptors known as rods and cones
Stimulation of alpha-adrenergic receptors results in?
constriction of the blood vessels
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.
Stimulation of which would cause an increase in heart rate and contraction strength?
beta 1 receptors
What receptors do not undergo adaptation?
Tonic receptors have little to no adaptation while phasic receptors adapt fast!
What adrenergic receptors are present on the rabbit ileum?
The rabbit ileum primarily possesses α1-adrenergic receptors, which are responsible for mediating smooth muscle contraction. Stimulation of these receptors by adrenaline or noradrenaline can lead to increased motility in the rabbit ileum.
What receptor is responsible for the secretion of salivary amylase?
The muscarinic receptors on the salivary gland cells are responsible for the secretion of salivary amylase. Stimulation of these receptors by the neurotransmitter acetylcholine triggers the release of amylase into the saliva.
What is the stimuli of nose?
The stimuli of the nose include odors, airborne chemicals, and particles that are detected by olfactory receptors located in the nasal epithelium. These receptors send signals to the brain, which process the information and allow us to perceive different smells.
