What else can I help you with?
What are sensory receptors that respond to heavy pressure called?
Sensory receptors that respond to heavy pressure are called Pacinian corpuscles.
Why are taste and smell receptors classified as Chemoreceptors because they both respond to?
Taste and smell receptors are classified as chemoreceptors because they both respond to chemical stimuli. These receptors detect specific molecules in the environment and send signals to the brain, which are then interpreted as taste or smell.
The olfactory receptors are examples of what type of ceptors?
The olfactory receptors are examples of chemoreceptors, which are sensory receptors that respond to chemical stimuli in the environment. In the case of olfactory receptors, they detect odor molecules in the air.
Which substances are found on cell surfaces and respond to nerve and hormone signals?
Receptors, such as neurotransmitter receptors and hormone receptors, are found on cell surfaces. These receptors bind to specific signaling molecules like neurotransmitters and hormones, allowing cells to respond to these signals and initiate a biological response.
Cells of different tissues and organs respond to the same hormone if they have the same kind of molecules?
Yes, cells can respond to the same hormone if they have the specific receptors that can bind to that hormone. The presence of these receptors allows cells to detect and respond to hormonal signals, regardless of whether they are from the same tissue or organ.
How do you use scraped in a sentence?
I fell onto the tarmac and scraped my knee. The old wallpaper was scraped from the wall and replaced with a trendy design. I scraped the last of the butter out of the container and realised there was no gin left, either.
What do sensory receptors enable you to do?
Sensory receptors enable you to respond to stimuli in the environment of an organism. Some sensory receptors respond to taste and smell while others respond to physical stimuli.
MY son fell and scraped his knee He has refused to been his knee He needs help walking and sitting He couldn't even sleep during the night Could this be more than a scraped knee?
Yes, this most certainly could be more than a scraped knee. You should consider getting this evaluated by a medical professional. [[User:Cjonb|Cjonb]] 19:03, 2 Jun 2008 (UTC)
Where would you find receptors that respond to?
You would find receptors that respond to various stimuli in different parts of the body, such as the skin for touch and temperature receptors, the nose for olfactory receptors, and the tongue for taste receptors. Additionally, there are receptors located in organs and tissues that respond to internal conditions like pressure, pH, and hormones.
What are sensory receptors that respond to heavy pressure called?
Sensory receptors that respond to heavy pressure are called Pacinian corpuscles.
Which appear to be more numerous-receptors that respond to cold and heat?
Receptors that respond to cold are more numerous than receptors that respond to heat in the skin. Cold receptors are densely packed and widely distributed across the skin surface to detect changes in temperature quickly and efficiently, while heat receptors are less numerous and tend to respond to higher temperatures.
Why does it hurt to bend your knee after you scraped it?
It hurts because there are "nerve receptors" at the end of your knee, and when you bump or scrape your knee, the nerve endings send a "signal" to your brain saying, "STOP THAT IT HURTS!" so therefore you basically experience pain.
What body system helps prevent an infection on a scraped knee?
Your immune system.
What are taste and smell receptors classified as?
Taste receptors are classified as chemoreceptors, specialized sensory receptors that respond to chemical stimuli in the form of tastes. Smell receptors are classified as olfactory receptors, which are designed to detect and respond to odor molecules in the environment.
Why are taste and smell receptors classified as Chemoreceptors because they both respond to?
Taste and smell receptors are classified as chemoreceptors because they both respond to chemical stimuli. These receptors detect specific molecules in the environment and send signals to the brain, which are then interpreted as taste or smell.
Receptors that can respond to changes in pressure?
Mechanoreceptors are sensory receptors that respond to mechanical forces such as pressure. Specialized types of mechanoreceptors include baroreceptors that detect changes in blood pressure and tactile receptors in the skin that respond to touch and pressure. These receptors help the body in detecting and responding to changes in pressure.
Are receptors more numerous when they respond to heat or cold?
cold receptors are more numerous
