What else can I help you with?
Can a first order sensory neuron sometimes be a sensory receptor?
The first order sensory neuron can sometimes be a sensory receptor because it is what sends the signal to the brain from the receptor. The second order goes from the brainstem to the thalamus.
Which type of sensory receptor is used to detect a stimulus by the special sense of hearing?
Mechanoreceptors are the type of sensory receptor used to detect a stimulus in the special sense of hearing. These receptors respond to mechanical stimuli such as vibrations in the environment that are produced by sound waves.
Is a control mechanism that intensifies an earlier reaction A sensory receptor An effector Negative feedback Positive feedback?
sensory receptor
Which type of sensory receptor responds to the distortion or bending of tissue?
Mechanoreceptors are sensory receptors that respond to the distortion or bending of tissue. They are responsible for detecting touch, pressure, vibration, and proprioception.
The point where a stimulus is great enough to be sensed is a sensory receptor.?
A sensory receptor is specialized nerve ending that responds to specific stimuli, such as light, sound, or pressure. The point at which the stimulus intensity is sufficient for the receptor to generate a detectable signal is known as the threshold. Once this threshold is surpassed, the sensory receptor can transmit information to the nervous system, enabling perception of the stimulus.
Which type of sensory receptor enables you to see?
photoreceptor
What type of sensory receptor enables you to see?
photoreceptor
Is the sensory receptor the first element in the sensory pathway?
Yes the sensory receptor is the first element.
What type of sensory receptor allows detection of light and vision?
photoreceptors
What type of neuron begins a reflex arc?
A sensory receptor is the type of neuron that begins a reflex arc.
Can a first order sensory neuron sometimes be a sensory receptor?
The first order sensory neuron can sometimes be a sensory receptor because it is what sends the signal to the brain from the receptor. The second order goes from the brainstem to the thalamus.
Which type of sensory receptor is used to detect a stimulus by the special sense of hearing?
Mechanoreceptors are the type of sensory receptor used to detect a stimulus in the special sense of hearing. These receptors respond to mechanical stimuli such as vibrations in the environment that are produced by sound waves.
Which type of sensory receptor helps humans detect light?
The eye, specifically rods and cones.
What type of sensory receptor allows us to feel an insect landing on your skin?
Mechanoreceptor
Type of neurones along a reflex arc?
the sensory receptor begins then the Relay neuron and final the motor neuron
What structure receives a stimulus from the external environment and relays it to the sensory neuron?
The receptor!
Which sensory receptor is responsive to light?
Photoreceptor
