Mechanoreceptors in the skin and muscles would be activated as pressure and strain are applied to the body while leaning on a shovel. These mechanoreceptors detect mechanical stimuli, such as pressure and movement, and send signals to the brain to create the sensation of touch and body position.

What would a chemical be considered if a person lacks a particular receptor site on the cilia of the olfactory neurons?

The chemical would be considered as odorless to that person because without the specific receptor site on the cilia of the olfactory neurons, the individual would be unable to detect or perceive the smell of the chemical.

How would caffeine binding to an adenosine receptor affect the activity inside the neuron?

Adenosine receptors stick through the neuron membrane, so that part of them are on the inside and part is on the outside of the cell. Now, when adenosine, a natural chemical in the body, attaches to the adenosine receptor it shifts the shape of the receptor, this shift reaches all the way to the part on the inside of the cell, and causes the receptor to release attached molecules called G-proteins. These g-proteins now float around the inside of the cell and have all sorts of effects, in this case, to inhibit the neuron. Caffeine also binds to the adenosine receptor, but it doesn't activate the receptor. This means that the receptor is totally shut down, and can't work to inhibit the neuron any more. The end effect is to allow the neuron to be more active than it was before the caffeine.

How would you change the pA2 for a drug-receptor pair?

The only way to change the pA2 would be to alter the nature of the receptor, because the pA2 is essentially a measurement of the affinity of the antagonist drug for the receptor. So, in order to change this value, one would need to change the receptor in a way that changes the binding affinity of the drug.

Which factor would most likely interfere with the binding of a ligand to an intracellular receptor?

The presence of other molecules competing for binding to the receptor would most likely interfere with the binding of a ligand to an intracellular receptor. The receptor may also be in an incorrect conformational state that prevents ligand binding. Lastly, alterations in the receptor's structure due to mutations could interfere with ligand binding.
