Why you feel that the sugar water is not so sweet if you drink it just after eating chocolate?
sugar taste receptors have a specific threshold and specific saturation level, below which and above which the stimulus is not perceived. so when we eat chocolate the taste receptors reach a saturation point above which it doesnt percieve sweet water stimulus sugar taste receptors have a specific threshold and specific saturation level, below which and above which the stimulus is not perceived. so when we eat chocolate the taste receptors reach a saturation point above which it doesnt percieve sweet water stimulus it worked 4 me chocolate makes me feel better!
Why do chemotherapy patients experience taste aversion?
Chemotherapy patients often experience taste aversions to particular foods because they undergo a process of learning called classical conditioning. Classical conditioning occurs when a particular thing that doesn't actually elicit any reaction (called a neutral stimulus) is paired with something that naturally elicits some reaction (called an unconditioned stimulus), and then an association develops between the original stimulus and the reaction (after which the neutral stimulus is then referred to as the conditioned stimulus). The chemicals used in chemotherapy (unconditioned stimulus) are what naturally cause nausea and vomiting; however, sometimes food eaten soon after receiving chemotherapy treatment (neutral stimulus) can be associated with the feeling of illness caused by the chemo, then leading the patient to develop an aversion to that particular food item (now a conditioned stimulus). Typically, classical conditioning requires multiple pairings of the unconditioned and neutral stimulus; however, learned taste aversions can develop after a single pairing, because the body is biologically prepared to develop these.
Is sour taste a physical or chemical reaction?
Sour taste is a result of a chemical property. Certain chemicals - acids in particular - produce a sour taste when they come in contact with the appropriate taste buds. The chemical interaction of those chemicals with the taste buds yeilds a stimulus of those taste buds that the brain interprets as "sour".
What must be paired together for classical conditioning to occur?
For classical conditioning to occur a neutral stimulus must be paired with an unconditioned stimulus. The neutral stimulus is initially meaningless to the organism but becomes associated with the unconditioned stimulus after the two are repeatedly paired together. This process of association is known as classical conditioning. The following are the components needed for classical conditioning to occur: A neutral stimulus An unconditioned stimulus A response ReinforcementThe neutral stimulus is something that does not initially produce a response. It is usually a sound taste or smell. The unconditioned stimulus is something that naturally produces a response. It is usually a food or something that causes pain or discomfort. The response is the reaction to the unconditioned stimulus such as salivating or flinching. Reinforcement is the use of rewards or punishments to strengthen the association between the neutral stimulus and the unconditioned stimulus.
Signal to which an organism responds?
stimulus
How many areas of taste has the tongue?
AnswerThere is no such thing as "areas" of taste in the tongue. The taste buds are all spread out on the tongue and each taste bud has taste cells only responding to one class of dissolved chemical stimulus. Yes, we still taste the traditional 4 flavors (bitter, sweet, sour, salty) however, there are many more flavors such as umami (savory), dryness, etc...
What is the different between an external stimulus and an internal stimulus?
The difference between an external stimulus and an internal stimulus is that an external stimulus is a stimulus that comes from outside an organism. But an internal stumulus is a stimulus that comes from inside an organism. An example for an external stimulus can be that when you are cold, you put on a jacket. An example for an internal stimulus is that when you feel hungry, you eat food.
What is absolute threshold?
Absolute threshold is the smallest level of energy required by an external stimulus to be detectable by the human senses, including vision, hearing, taste, smell and touch
How are stimulus converted into a sensation?
sense organ
Is stimulus a reaction to an internal event?
A stimulus is not a reaction, a stimulus is what causes a reaction.
In positive feedback the initial stimulus produces a response that the stimulus?
exagerrates the stimulus
What can increase a strong stimulus?
threshold stimulus
