Exam 3 Part 6 Flashcards
Receptors
exteroceptor, interoceptors, proprioceptors, photoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, thermoreceptors, chemoreceptors, nociceptors, baroreceptors
exteroceptors
pick up stimuli from outside body (taste, vision, smell etc)
interoceptors
inside -monitor conditions inside
proprioceptors
sense body position-monitor status of muscle contraction
photorecptors
light, color, intensity, movement tracking
mechanoreceptors
at body surface (cutanous), pain, pressure, touch
thermoreceptors
hot and cold
chemoreceptors
olfactory, gustatory, body fluids (o2, pH)
baroreceptors
deep - pressure
nociceptors
pain
referred pain
perceived cutaneously, originates viscerally
phantom pain
perceived in an amputated body part
eyes
in eye socket (orbit) 7 cranial bones
eyelid
palpebrae
conjuctiva
