Respond to stimuli by converting them to nerve impulses

Classification of receptors

1. Sensory sytem pathway 2. Location in body 3. Stimulus that causes them to respond 4. Structure

Bring infomation about the somatic senses-- Consciously aware Found: Skin, Muscles, Ligaments, Eyes, Ears

Carry infomation about the visceral senses-- Not consciously aware Found: Internal organs

1. Olfactory 2. Optic 3. Oculomotor 4. Trochlear 5. Trigeminal 6. Abducens 7. Facial 8. Vestibulocochlear 9. Glossopharyngeal 10. Vagus 11. Accessory 12. Hypoglossal

What is the lymphatic system

Component of the circulatory system- it consists of moving fluids from blood and tissue fluid

What are the main lymphatic trunks

Right lymphatic duct Thoracic duct

Components: Brain and spinal cord Function: Processes information, controls thought and emotion and voluntary and involuntary actions. (MAIN CONTROL CENTER FOR ENTIRE NERVOUS SYSTEM)

Components: All nerves outside the brain and spinal cord: Cranial nerves, spinal nerves, and autonomic nerves. Function: relays sensory information from the body to the CNS and carries motor commands from the CNS back to the rest of the body

The enterogastric reflex causes

The inhibition of gastric peristalsis

What are Natual Killer Cells and where are they produced

Group of lymphocytes that kill many types of tumor cells infected by a virus Produced: Red bone marrow
