? senses are located in special sense organs, while ? senses are distributed throughout the body
special, general
special senses include:
(1) Vision, (2) Taste, (3) Smell, (4) Hearing, and (5) Equilibrium
CSF is composed of plasma-like solution formed from blood plasma and produced in the ? ?
it is located in the ?, central canal, ? space
choroid plexus, ventricles, subarachnoid
When playing the piano, the primary type of memory used is ? memory
procedural
The link between the nervous and endocrine systems through the control of the pituitary gland is the ?; this region of the brain is the control center and it receives signals from ? system and then sends signals to the pituitary gland, which in turn releases ? that regulate bodily functions
hypothalamus, nervous, hormones
nervous system is ?-acting and uses ? and ? mechanisms
fast, electrical, chemical
endocrine system is ?-acting and secretes ? into ?
slow, hormones, bloodstream
location of hearing receptors
vestibulocochlear/ cochlear division
frequency is the
pitch
amplitude is the sound’s ? or loudness
intensity
? respond to touch, pressure, vibration, or stretch
mechanoreceptors
- ? are sensitive to changes in temperature
thermoreceptors
- ? respond to light energy for sight
Photoreceptors
- ? respond to chemicals for smell, taste, or changes in blood chemistry
Chemoreceptors
- ? respond to potentially damaging stimuli and are sensitive to pain-causing stimuli, such as extreme heat or cold, excessive pressure, or inflammatory chemicals
Nociceptors
- ? respond to stimuli arising outside body near or at body surface
*Receptors in skin for touch, pressure, pain, and temperature and most receptors for special sense organs (vision, hearing, equilibrium, smell, taste) are exteroceptors
Exteroceptors
- ? (visceroceptors) respond to stimuli arising in internal viscera and blood vessels and are sensitive to chemical changes, tissue stretching, or temperature changes
interoceptors
- ? are located in and respond to stretch in skeletal muscles, tendons, joints, ligaments, and CT coverings of bones and muscles to inform the brain of one’s movements
proprioceptors
When focused, the lenses of the eye ? ? to focus it on the ?,
the ? muscle controls the lens
bend, light, retina, ciliary

If you can’t tell different odors apart, the nerve affected is the
olfactory nerve (I)
? neurons carry information from the body’s sensory receptors INTO the central nervous system (CNS).
afferent
?, also known as association neurons, allow ? between afferent and efferent neurons
interneurons, communication
? carry information OUT from the CNS to muscles and glands to stimulate ?.
efferent, movement
