AP I Exam 4
Chapter 15
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| How is sensation different from perceptions? | ~sensations are both conscious and subconscious detections of the internal body homeostasis and external environment ~ reaches the cerebral cortex and become consciously aware of the stimulus ~ touch, pain, hearing, or taste |
| How are perceptions different from sensations? | ~perception interprets sensations and all conscious awareness ~ never reaches the cerebral cortex to become aware of the stimulus ~ uses other parts of the brain to fix the problem ~ blood pressure |
| How does general sense differ from special senses? | ~refer to both visceral and somatic senses |
| How does special senses differ from general sense? | ~include sensory modalities of smell, taste, vision, hearing, and equilibrium |
| How does somatic senses differ from visceral senses? | ~somatic sense are the sense of touch, pressure, vibration, itch, tickle, warm, cold, nonmoving and movement of the limbs ~tactile, thermal, pain, and proprioceptive sensations |
| How does visceral senses differ from somatic senses? | provide info on the conditions within the internal organs |
| Where are some somatic sensory receptors located? | ~ vagina, anus, and mouth ~ muscles, tendons, and joints ~ inner ear *HYPODERMIS OR SKIN* |
| How are somatic sensory receptors distributed in the body surfaces? | ~ distributed unevenly ~ some parts are densely populated with receptors ~ some parts only contain a few receptors |
| Where are the highest density somatic sensory receptors located? | ~ tongue, lips, and fingers |
| What are the four modalities of somatic sensations? | ~ thermal, tactile, pain, and proprioceptive |
| Somatic sensations that arise from the skin surface are called what? | ~cutaneous sensations |
| Cutaneous Sensations are what? | ~Somatic sensations that arise from the skin surface |
| What are proprioceptors? | ~ provide information about body position, muscle length/tension, and the position/movement of joints |
| Where are proprioceptors located? | ~ muscles, tendons, joints, and inner ear |
| Referred pain is different from somatic localization by what? | ~ the pain is felt in/just deep to the skin that overlies the stilted organ ~ in a surface area far from the stimulated organ |
| Somatic localization is caused when? | ~ sensation appears to come from a larger area of the skin ~ categorized as "fast pain" |
| What is categorized as "fast pain"? | ~ somatic localization |
| Referred pain is considered what? | ~ visceral pain |
| What are proprioceptive sensations? | ~ knowing where your head or limbs are located ~ what make us able to walk and go about without looking at it |
| What do Ascending pathways contain? | thousands of first-order neurons, second-order neurons, and third-order neurons |
| 1st-order neurons do what in regards to ascending pathway? | ~ Go from receptor to spinal cord or brain stem -- cell cody in dorsal/posterior root ganglion |
| 2nd-order neurons do what in regards to ascending pathway? | ~ spinal colum/brain stem to thalamus-- cell body in spinal cord/brain stem gray matter *CROSS OVER TO OTHER SIDE* |
| 3rd-order neuron do what in regards to ascending pathway? | ~ go from thalamus to appropriate cerebral cortex somatosensory area-- cell body in thalamus (relay station) |
| The Descending Pathway contains what? | upper motor neuron and lower motor neuron |
| Upper motor neuron does what in regards to the descending pathway? | crosses over from cerebral cortex to lower motor neuron -- cell body in cerebral cortex/ brain stem nuclei |
| Lower motor neuron does what in regards to the descending pathway? | brain stem/spinal cord to skeletal muscles through ventral root -- cell body in brain stem nuclei or anterior horn gray matter of spinal cord |
| What is the function of the olfactory receptors? | respond to the chemical stimulation of an odorant molecule by producing a generator potential, initiating the olfactory response |
| What is the function of the gustatory receptors? | chemical sense with distinguishing sour, sweet, salty, bitter, and umami when eating food |
| What is the structure of the olfactory receptors? | |
| What is the structure of gustatory receptors? | |
| How does taste and smell function together? | ~ memory of smell better can help with the identification of objects ~ 75-80% of "taste" is actually smell--- influenced by texture and temperature ~ odor/taste can distinguish if something is disgusting/ negative attribute with it |
| What is the pathway olfactory receptors take? | 1.receptor bipolar neuron 2.olfactory bulb 3.CN I 4.olfactory sensory are of temporal lobe cerebral cortex 5.prefrontal asso. are 6.insula 7.limbic system&hypothalamus 8. 1,000 different kinds of receptors 9. 10,000 different odors |
| What is the pathway gustatory receptors take? | 1. taste bud 2.CN VII, IX, X 3.medulla oblongata 4.thalamus: consious 5.gustaory sensory area of parietal lobe cerebral cortex 6. prefrontal association area-identification 7.insula-taste evaluation 8. limbic system&hypothalamus 9.different taste |
| What is the structure of the eye? | |
| What is the function of the eye? | |
| What does the fibrous tunic contain? | contains cornea and sclera |
| What does the vascular tunic contain? | contains the choroid, ciliary body, iris |
| Structure of the cavities/chambers? | |
| Function of the cavities/chambers? | |
| What does the nervous tunic contain | retina, central fovea & macula lutea, otic disc |
