The adequate stimulus for sensory receptors in the ear, specifically hair cells in the cochlea, is sound waves. These sound waves cause vibrations in the fluid-filled chambers of the inner ear, which displace the hair cells and generate electrical signals. These signals are then transmitted to the brain, allowing us to perceive sound. Different frequencies and amplitudes of sound waves stimulate different hair cells, enabling a wide range of auditory experiences.
What else can I help you with?
Are sensory neurons organs?
No, sensory neurons are not organs. Sensory neurons are a type of nerve cell that carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system where it is processed. They are part of the nervous system but do not constitute organs themselves.
What is the function of somatosensory area?
The somatosensory area is responsible for processing sensory information related to touch, pressure, temperature, and pain from the skin and muscles. It helps us perceive and interpret sensory stimuli to create our sense of touch and spatial awareness.
What organ carries information between the brain and the rest body?
AnswerAfferent sensory neurons carry the impulses from the receptors (afferent sensory organs) to the spinal cord and/or the brain.
What is the process where sensory receptors become less sensitive to the same stimuli?
You can think of what happens when you smell things that are usually the same day to day. You will notice that smell less and less. Olfactory fatigue is an example of neural adaptation or sensory adaptation. The body becomes desensitized to stimuli to prevent the overloading of the nervous system, thus allowing it to respond to new stimuli that are out of the ordinary or new.
What change in an organism's surroundings that will cause the organism to react is called a?
Stimuli are things in the environment that cause change. A reaction to a change in the environment is a reaction to a stimulus.
What is the concentration of sensory receptors in a head?
I think it is the Brain....

What part of the ear contains the sensory receptors for hearing and balance?
In the mammalian ear the sensory receptors (hair cells) for hearing are in the cochlea and for ballance are in the semicircular canals. Both the cochlea and semicircular canals are part of the inner ear.inner
When a person feels heat of a stove is that a stimulus or a response?
I think that it would be a stimulus because response is something you do because of a stimulus.

How are the sensory receptors for smell and taste similar?
They are similar to each other because when u smell something a trigger in your brain tells you that you know or have an assumption of what the food is going to taste like and it is often correct the food will taste like what it smelt like.
What change in an organism's surroundings that will cause the organism to react is called a?
Stimuli are things in the environment that cause change. A reaction to a change in the environment is a reaction to a stimulus.
What body system detects a stimulus and creates a response?
im not sure but i think it's the nervous system
What term refers to a response to a stimulus or influence?
I think is reaction.
What are stimulus's?
It is a signal that causes an animal to react in some way. Some stimulus comes from outside the animal's body, while other stimulus, like thirst, come from inside the animal's body. The animal's reaction to the stimulus is called a response ------------------------------------------------ stimulus can be a object , piece of writing or a a photo that you can use to help create a performance in drama
