Q

connects the middle ear cavity and pharynx

A

eustachian tube

19
Q

coil like snail shell in the inner ear and contains organ of hearing (corti)

20
Q

separates outer ear from the middle ear

A

tympanic membrane

21
Q
  • first bone (ossicle) of the ear
  • in contact with eardrum
  • hammer shaped
22
Q
  • shaped live anvil
  • helps amplify sound
23
Q
  • innermost ossicle
  • in contact with the oval window of the inner ear
  • shaped like a stirrup
24
Q
  • consists of 2 chambers
  • contain receptors for equilibrium
A

vestibular

25
- areas for receptors for equilibrium - 3 tubes
semicircular canals
26
- long strip of hair cells - known as spiral organ
Organ of Corti
27
the special senses
- taste - smell - sight - equilibrium
28
the general senses
- touch - pressure - temperature - position - pain
29
neurons embedded in the epithelium of the nasal cavity’s superior region; neurons react with smell chemicals; involved with sense of smell
Olfactory epithelium
30
parts of the tongue and which area are sensitive to sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami
- located on a mainly superior surface on tongue - enclosed on rained projections called papillae
31
the function of the Vestibularcochlea nerve and what cranial nerve is it
- Cranial nerve 8 - receptors for equilibrium - balance - transmits sensory information for balance - from inner ear to brain
32
the purpose of analgesics
relieve pain by blocking the sensation of pain within the body; more of a pain control
33
sensory adaptation
the way the body adjusts to different stimuli
34
oto-
ear
35
opthalmo-
eye
36
scope-
instrument to examine

40
the 4 structures that protect the eyes and describe the contribution of each
- skull - eyelid and eyebrow - tears - conjunctiva
41
skull (eye orbit)
- protects eye - bony orbit protects the posterior portion
42
eyelid and eyebrow
- protects the anterior portion of the eye - keeps foreign substances out of eye
43
tears
lubricates eye
44
conjunctiva
lines eyelids and part of sclera
