![]() Lamellated (Pacinian) corpuscles What type of pain fiber is myelinated, and is associated with immediate sensation of sharp pain? Fast pain fibers Tissue damage causes the release of various compounds which, in turn, stimulate _ receptors. referred Along with glutamate, the nociceptors release the neurotransmitter substance _ P Indicate three types of touch and pressure receptors. However, they are lacking in what tissue? Brain tissue The term _ pain describes the sensation of visceral pain coming from a part of the body other than the part being stimulated. pain Sensory receptors for the sense of pain are widely distributed. minutes Receptors for _ can be stimulated by different types of stimuli such as mechanical damage, extreme changes in temperature, chemical stimulation, or ischemia (disrupted blood flow). false The sensation of warmth or cold begins to fade within _ of continuous stimulation. serotoninĮnkephalins True or false: Temperatures below 40 degrees C (113 degrees F) will stimulate pain receptors. tactile Pain receptors are also called _ nociceptors What is the structure of the receptors that detect temperature? Free nerve endings List two pain-relieving substances released by the brain. true The _ corpuscles respond light touch. free True or false: Warm and cold receptors undergo the process of sensory adaptation. Lamellated or Pacinian _ nerve ending receptors are the simplest receptors and are located between epithelial cells. true _ corpuscles are found typically in the connective tissue capsule of synovial joints. free nerve endings True or false: Temperature below 50 degrees F (10 degrees C) may produce a freezing sensation. Tactile (Meissner's) corpuscles Warm and cold receptors in the skin are _. false Name the encapsulated receptors for light touch which are abundant in hairless portions of the skin. Free nerve endings True or false: Receptors for the general senses are very localized, and found in the skin only. projection The ability of the nervous system to become less responsive to a maintained stimulus is called adaptation Free nerve endings, tactile corpuscles, and lamellated corpuscles are receptors for what senses? pressure _ are the simplest touch receptors, located between epithelial cells. This process is called _, allowing a person to perceive the region of stimulation. Joints Upon receiving sensory input, the brain causes the feeling to seem to come from the originating receptors. labeled Which three of the following regions are associated with receptors for the general senses? Viscera general / exteroreceptive The _ line principle explains why rubbing your eyes results in "flashes" of light being perceived. perception The _ senses include touch, pressure, temperature, and pain. ![]()
