Stimulus is like the cause of something or the theme. The receptor is what you use fir the stimulus e.g you look at a tv guide ( stimulus) and the receptor is your eyes because you use them to see it. The effector is the muscle used To use the tv guide so this could be your hand
our senses will detect stimulus and send impulse into the integrating centre(brain) to interpret. the brain will produce appropriate response toward the stimulus to the effector. e.g when Telephone ring, the ears will detect the stimulus(sound) and the brain will produce the response to pick up the phone (copy from Yahoo answers)
They are directly related. Homeostasis is an environments ability to maintain stbility in a regular cycle, but when something new is introduced, the environment is able to respond to a new occurance, or stimulus, and responds in order to survive and return to maintaining a normal cycle. Without response to a new stimulus, environments would be unable to maintain homeostasis and would die out!
It is an external stimulus.
receptor. When a ligand binds to its receptor on the cell surface or within the cell, it triggers a specific biological response or signaling pathway. The specificity of this interaction between ligand and receptor is critical in determining the cellular response.
An organism reacts to a stimulus with a response that aims to maintain homeostasis and ensure survival. This response can be behavioral, physiological, or molecular, depending on the type and intensity of the stimulus.
A Receptor is referring to a sense organ, like a nerve ending. An Effector is referring to a muscle capable of reflecting to a stimulus. By definition, receptor and effector are antonyms.
Effector organ is a part of the body that responds to a stimulus and a stimulus is a change in the environment that is detected by a receptor. And is a receptor is a nerve cell that detects a stimulus.
stimulus, receptor, afferent pathway, control center, efferent pathway, effector, response
The correct order of a homeostatic control system is: Stimulus - a change occurs in the internal or external environment. Receptor - sensors detect the change in the environment. Control center - processes the information and determines the appropriate response. Effector - carries out the necessary response to restore homeostasis.
The first element in a spinal reflex is the sensory receptor, which detects a stimulus. The last element is the effector, which carries out a response to the stimulus.
The nervous system is made up of three parts: the receptor, the decider, and the effector. The receptor receives an stimulus and creates an electric impulse to be sent to the brain. The brain receives this impulse and decides what to do in order to react to the stimulus. Your brain then makes a decision and sends out an electric impulse to the effector which moves the muscle or activates a gland in your body which is a reaction to the stimulus.
The three parts of a homeostatic regulatory mechanism are the receptor (detects changes in the internal or external environment), the control center (receives information from the receptor and initiates a response), and the effector (carries out the response to restore balance or stability).
The sensory receptor, sensory neuron, motor neuron, and effector involved in a reflex form a reflex arc. This is a neural pathway that controls a reflex action in response to a stimulus without conscious thought.
effector
In a feedback system, the sequence of events typically involves the initial stimulus activating a sensor, which then sends a signal to the control center. The control center receives the signal, processes the information, and initiates a response by sending signals to effector organs. The effector organs then carry out the necessary actions to counteract the initial stimulus, ultimately restoring balance to the system.
1. The receptor reacts to a stimulus. 2. The sensory neuron conducts the afferent impulses to the CNS. 3. The integration center consists of one or more synapses in the CNS. 4. The motor neuron conducts the efferent impulses from the integration center to an effector. 5. The effector, muscle fibers or glands, respond to the efferent impulses by contraction or secretion a product, respectively.
Summarized below are the 5 major components of the reflex arc: 1. Receptor 2. Afferent (sensory) neurons 3. Association neuron 4. Efferent (motor) neurons 5. Effector
