1. NEURAL RECEPTORS

2. Concepts  Types of sensations - tapping -pressure -temperature -vibration  What is it that allows us to make these distinction?

3. Central nervous system (CNS) -Receptors send information to the Brain &spinal cord where stimuli is perceived.

4. Touch Receptors

6. Thermal Receptors  They are found in the dermis layer of the skin. There are two basic categories of thermal receptors: hot and cold receptors.

7. Other Receptors  Pressure Receptors  Two Point Discrimination  Proprioceptors Receptors  Signal Transmission
