Chapter 22 Human Senses

What are the 5 Senses? 1. Sense of Sight – Vision 2. Sense of Hearing - Auditory 3. Sense of Smell – Olfactory 4. Sense of Taste – 5. Sense of Touch -

Vision - Structure Cornea: begins to focus light Need to know these structures & their function: Cornea: begins to focus light Aqueous humor: fluid between inside of cornea & the outside of the lens Iris: the color of the eye. A muscle that opens & closes to regulate pupil size Pupil: hole through which light passes Lens: flexible structure that focuses image on the retina

Vision - Structure Need to know these structures & their function: Ciliary muscle: ligaments attach the lens to these, they contract & stretch the lens allowing near & far focus Vitreous humor: fluid inside eyeball maintains size & shape of the eye Retina: contains the rods & cones that are sensitive to light Choroid coat: middle layer of the eyeball Sclera: the outer “whites of the eye” Optic nerve: takes rod & cone impulse back to the occipital lobe for processing

Image Processing Fovea – The central region where images focused is the fovea. Rods – about 1 billion, sensitive to brightness, light and dark & movement Cones – detect color, about 3 million. 3 types of cones, sensitive to red, blue & green wavelengths of light. All rods & cones have nerve fiber attached, these collect at the back of the eye and form the optic nerve which carries the signal back to the eye.

Hearing – Human Sound Need to know these structures & their function: Outer Ear, Middle Ear, Inner Ear, Pinna, Auditory canal, Tympanum, Malleus, Incus, Stapes, Oval Window, Cochlea, Auditory Nerve, Semicircular Canals, Eustachian Tube

Outer Ear Pinna- (the ear flap aka auricle), used to focus the sound waves into the ear canal External Auditory Meatus – the “hole through the temporal bone that opens the space for the ear canal, the middle & inner ears Auditory Canal – (ear canal), focuses the sound onto the ear drum Tympanic membrane – (ear drum), end of the outer ear, beginning of the middle ear. Sound starts the ear drum vibrating.

Middle Ear Tympanic membrane vibrates Causing the 3 smallest bones in to vibrate, one after the next Malleus (hammer) is touching the ear drum & vibrates first Next is the Incus (anvil) Last is the Stapes Eustachian Tube: tube that connects the middle ear w/ the pharynx. This allows the pressure on both sides of the ear drum to equalize.

Inner Ear The Stirup vibrates the oval window of the cochlea. Cochlea is a long fluid filled tube, folded in half and the coiled up like a snail shell. The entire inner surface is lined w/ cillia. Attached to the cillia is a nerve fiber. Once cillia are vibrated, the attached nerves are stimulated & send signal to the brain. Balance is achieved by the semicircular canals. 3 canals in 3 different planes are able to determine body position in space

Sense of Smell - Olfaction Odors – chemical molecules floating in the air 3 main sinuses w/ Turbinates that cause the breathed air to mix Surface of sinuses is called the Mucosa, Made of epithelial cells On superior surface of the ethmoid sinus are 1000’s of Olfactory Cells Odors bind w/ Olfactory Cells which stimulate attached olfactory nerves These nerves combine & organize in one of two Olfactory Bulbs Bulbs attach by olfactory tract directly to the brain Olfactory Bulb Ventral view of Brain

Taste Brain can sense 4 basic tastes: Sweet, Sour, Salty & Bitter 50 -150 Taste Receptor Cells make up a Taste Bud. Many Taste Buds are located on Papilla (the “bumps” on the upper surface of the tongue) Most taste buds located on sides & back of tongue, very few in middle of tongue Most Papilla are on the tongue but also found on the palate, pharynx & epiglottis 3 types (shapes) of Papilla Vallate Papillae Fungiform papillae Filiform papillae

3 Types of Papillae Fungiform Papilla Vallate Papilla Filiform Papilla Taste Buds on a Vallate Papilla. Arrows indicate nerves

50 -150 Taste Cells per Taste Bud Each taste cell is located in the Oral Epithelium & consists of small hairs attached to nerve receptors that lie in the taste pore. dissolved food or drink binds to a receptor, like a key in a lock. If the key fits, then the taste cell sends a signal to the brain, telling it that this morsel is sweet, salty, sour, or bitter. Many individual taste cells all w/ their own nerve coming off. A Taste Bud

Sense of Touch Touch receptors are nerve cells that tell your brain about tactile sensations. Mechanoreceptors – (pain, pressure & tactile) Pain - Free nerve endings informs the brain about pain, and they are located over the entire body. Pressure – detects pressure and limb position Tactile - are located all over the skin but grouped mainly on the skin of the fingertips & lips. Only stimulated when touched. They tell the brain the shape and feel of an object in the hand, or the touch of a pleasant or aggravating touch. They adjusts to the environment, which is why the brain eventually ignores clothing that you are wearing. Thermoreceptors – (heat & cold) Cold - can be found in the skin, conjunctiva, lips, and tongue. Heat - are found over the entire body in the skin.
