NEURAL RECEPTORS

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

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

Touch Receptors

 There are different types of "receptors" that are activated by different stimuli. When a receptor is activated, it triggers a series of nerve impulses.

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

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