Perceptual level
Perceptual level
At least three neurons are required to carry information from a sensory receptor to the somatosensory cortex. The first neuron is located in the sensory receptor, the second neuron is in the spinal cord or brainstem, and the third neuron is in the thalamus before reaching the somatosensory cortex.
-Level I: The receptor level corresponding to the sensory receptors -Level II: The circuit level corresponding to the ascending pathways -Level III: The perceptual level corresponding to the awareness of the incoming stimuli
partial lobes
our solar sytsem is on the western corner of the milky way i.e on the Orion Arm
parietal lobe
This part of the brain processes information from the skin (touch, temperature and pain).
The somatosensory cortex
not in Europe but in America we had to practice the ''duck and cover'' sytsem
Somatosensory disorders are conditions that affect the ability to perceive and process sensory information from the body, such as touch, temperature, and pain. This can result in abnormalities in sensation, such as numbness, tingling, hypersensitivity, or loss of sensation. Conditions like peripheral neuropathy, fibromyalgia, and complex regional pain syndrome are examples of somatosensory disorders.
