What else can I help you with?
Neurons that detect stimuli in the environment are known as?
Sensory (afferent) neurons
Neurons with the ability to monitor the environment are called what?
Sensory neurons are the type of neurons that have the ability to monitor the environment. They are specialized to detect stimuli from the external or internal environment and transmit this information to the brain for processing.
What are neurons called that detect stimuli in skin and eyes?
sensory neurons
What neurons react directly to stimuli from the environment?
sensory neurons
Neurons dectecting stimuli in the skin and eyes are?
In the skin, neurons that detect stimuli are called mechanoreceptors for touch, nociceptors for pain, and thermoreceptors for temperature. In the eyes, neurons that detect light stimuli are called photoreceptors, specifically rods and cones located in the retina.
What are neurons called that detect stimuli in the skin and eye?
sensory neurons
Cells called what detect changes in the environment known as stimuli?
Sensory receptors detect changes in the environment known as stimuli. These receptors are specialized cells that send signals to the brain or spinal cord in response to specific types of stimuli such as light, sound, pressure, or chemical signals.
How is audio data transmitted?
Auditory sensory neurons are specialized to detect stimuli from the environment which triggers the neuron to transmit a message to the central nervous system. These stimuli are both voluntary and involuntary.
What is the difference between somatic sensory neurons and visceral sensory neurons?
Somatic sensory neurons detect stimuli from the skin, muscles, and joints. Visceral sensory neurons detect stimuli from internal organs such as the heart, lungs, and intestines. Both types of neurons transmit sensory information to the central nervous system for processing.
What are the special cells of tes sense organ that receive stimuli from the environmen?
The special cells of the sense organs that receive stimuli from the environment are called receptors. The receptors detect different changes in the surrounding envronment and stimulate the neurons to perform the proper tasks.
What does the nervous system use to relay on messages to the body?
Sensory Neurons- they detect stimuli and transmit signals to the brain and the spinal cord, which are both made up of interneurons
What is a penguin's sensory organs?
Special sensory neurons in sense organs that receive stimuli from the external environment.
