What is the conscious awareness of stimuli received by sensory receptors called?
Sensation is Conscious awareness of stimuli received by sensory receptors
What happens when you stimulate an axon in the middle?
Axons have no receptors for stimuli, only the dendrites off of the soma are capable of having receptors for different stimuli
Can You List 3 Stimuli And The Receptors Used To Detect Them?

Activation of the receptors by stimuli is called?
Transmitter
What is the function of a pacinian corpuscle?
They are pressure receptors so respond to their stimuli-pressure :) hope this helps
What are the 4 types of stimuli detected by certain cutaneous receptors?

What receives stimuli and forms impulses?
Receptors or more precisely, sensory receptors.
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.
