Lecture Exam 4 - Chapter 13 Flashcards
ii. Learned or acquired reflexes – result of practice or repetition
1. Example – driving a car – series of complex movements, but we’re not consciously aware of many of them
- Classification of Sensory Receptors-
_________ – stimulated by touch, vibration, pressure, stretch, and itch
Mechanoreceptors
-Classification of Sensory Receptors-
_________ – sensitive to change in temperature
Thermoreceptors
-Classification of Sensory Receptors-
_________ – sensitive to light
Photoreceptors
-Classification of Sensory Receptors-
_________ – chemicals (smelling and tasting)
Chemoreceptors
-Classification of Sensory Receptors-
_________ – pain
Nociceptors
- Receptors by Location -
_________ – sensitive to changes outside the body
-Touch, temperature, sight, etc
Exteroceptors
- Receptors by Location -
_________ – respond to changes within the body
-Chemical changes, temperature, hunger, pain, etc.
Interoreceptors
- Receptors by Location -
_________ – respond to changes within the body but
are restricted to muscles, tendons, joints, and inner ear
Proprioceptors
- Receptors by Location -
_________ -Tell us where we are in space by monitoring body position, muscle length and tension, and movement of joints
Proprioceptors
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ – bare dendrites
-Detect pain, temperature, itch, tickle and some touch sensations
Free nerve endings
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ - Detect pain, temperature, itch, tickle and some touch sensations
Free nerve endings
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ – dendrites are enclosed in a capsule
-Detect touch, pressure, and vibration
Encapsulated dendritic endings
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ - Detect touch, pressure, and vibration
-Include meissner’s corpuscles, Pacinian corpuscles, and Ruffini’s corpuscles
Encapsulated dendritic endings
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ – proprioceptors found in skeletal muscle
- Measure how much a muscle is being stretched
- Impulses are sent to the cerebrum
Muscle spindles
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ - Measure how much a muscle is being stretched
- Impulses are sent to the cerebrum (conscious
proprioception) and cerebellum (coordination)
Muscle spindles
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ – located at junction of muscle and tendon
-Initiate reflexes that relaxes muscle before it contracts too forcefully
Tendon organs
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ - Initiate reflexes that relaxes muscle before it contracts too forcefully
Tendon organs
- Receptors by Structure -
_________ – several types of receptors that monitor joint position and movement
Joint kinesthetic receptors
- Stimulation of sensory receptor -
- stimulus must be specific to _________ (i.e. touch receptor doesn’t respond to light)
- Stimulus must be in receptor’s “_________” – area of the body it is monitoring
* *- Converting a stimulus to an action potential ** - Stimulus must be converted to energy – called transduction
- -Causes depolarization or hyperpolarization - Generation of impulses – threshold must be reached so an action potential is triggered and impulse is carried towards the CNS
- -1st order neurons – conduct sensory impulses from the PNS to the CNS
- receptor
- range
- Stimulation of sensory receptor -
- stimulus must be specific to receptor (i.e. touch receptor doesn’t respond to light)
- Stimulus must be in receptor’s “range” – area of the body it is monitoring

Circuit
- Three levels of integration -
_________ – cerebral cortex
Perceptual
_________ - Stimulus must be converted to energy
transduction
In the _________ :
Impulses are sent to thalamus, cerebellum, then to the cerebral cortex where impulse is interpreted
