1. SENSES Sensory Receptors - detect environmental changes and trigger nerve impulses somatic senses (touch, pressure, temp, pain) - special senses (smell, taste, vision, equilibrium)

2. Receptors and Sensations 1. Chemoreceptors = _______________________________ 2. Pain receptors = _______________________________ 3. Thermoreceptors = _______________________________ 4. Mechanoreceptors = _______________________________ 5. Photoreceptors = _______________________________ Sensation = feeling that occurs when a brain interprets a sensory impulse Projection = process where the cerebral cortex causes a feeling to stem from a source (eyes, ears) Sensory adaptation = sensory receptors stop sending signals when they are repeatedly stimulated

3. Somatic Senses 1. Sensory Nerve Fibers - epithelial tissue, pain and pressure 2. Meissner's corpuscles - hairless areas of skin (lips, fingertips) 3. Pacinian corpuscles - deep pressure (tendons, joints) Temperature Senses (warm and cold receptors)

4. Sense of Pain Visceral Pain - occurs in visceral tissues such as heart, lungs, intestine Referred pain - feels as though it is coming from a different part (heart pain may be felt as pain in arm or shoulder) Acute Pain - originates from skin, usually stops when stimulus stops (needle prick) Chronic Pain - dull aching sensation

5. Regulation of Pain Inhibitors of Pain (natural brain chemicals can be mimiced by drugs such as morphine) Enkephalins Serotonin Endorphins

6. What did the right eye say to the left eye? Between you and me, something smells!

13. 10.7 – Sense of Hearing

15. External Ear Auricle (pinna) - outer ear External Auditory Meatus

16. Middle Ear (tympanic cavity)

17. Eardrum (tympanum) Auditory Ossicles - malleus, incus, stapes - transmit vibrations and amplify the signal Auditory Tube (eustachian tube) - connects the middle ear to the throat - helps maintain air pressure

18. Inner Ear

19. Semicircular Canals - sense of equilibrium Cochlea – sense of hearing Labyrinth - communicating chambers and tubes Osseous labyrinth contains membranous labyrinth Perilymph and Endolymph (fluids within the labyrinth) Summary – bone  membrane  fluid

23. Cochlea - hearing Sound waves hit the tympanic membrane and move the auditory ossicles. The stapes is attached to the oval window, and vibrations cause the perilymph in the cochlea to vibrate Inside the cochlea are hair cells that are special neurons, which are triggered to send a message through the auditory nerve to the brain.

27. Ear infection

28. Sense of Equilibrium Static Equilibrium - sense the position of the head, maintain stability and posture Dynamic Equilibrium (semicircular canals) - balance the head during sudden movement Cerebellum - interprets impulses from the semicircular canals and maintains overall balance and stability

29. Dynamic Equilibrium http://neuroscience.uth.tmc.edu/s2/chapter10.htm lhttp://neuroscience.uth.tmc.edu/s2/chapter10.htm l

30. Balance Test and Spinning Board examples Nystagmus

32. Hearing Online Activities do to complete the lab. Google wisc online anatomy of the ear - **Do this as indicated on your lab report before you actually start the lab to review the anatomy of the ear. Also, you will need to google webster.edu ear for instructions on the hearing tests. (The specific instructions on how to conduct the tests are not listed on your lab report.)
