Question
Answer
Which of the following structures are parts of the peripheral nervous system   The sensory receptors, The spinal ganglia, Neuromuscular junctions, Peripheral nerves  
🗑
Perception is the conscious interpretation of   Internal sensations & External sensations  
🗑
Receptor Level   Sensor receptors  
🗑
Circuit level   Ascending pathways  
🗑
Perceptual Level   Neuronal circuits in cerebral cortex  
🗑
Adaptation of sensory receptors are   The receptor becomes less responsive and The receptor potentials decline in frequency or stops  
🗑
Which receptors do not exhibit adaptation   Pain & Proprioceptors  
🗑
second order neurons   Their soma resides in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord or medullary nuclei and transmits impulses to the thalamus or cerebellum  
🗑
First order neuron   Their soma reside in dorsal root or cranial ganglia, and conduct impulses from the skin to the spinal cord or brain stem  
🗑
Third order neuron   Their soma is located in the thalamus and conduct impulses to the somatosensory cortex of the cerebrum  
🗑
The thalamus projects fibers to   The frontal lobe, The red nucleus, The sensory association areas, The somatosensory cortex  
🗑
The main aspects of sensory perception are   perceptual detection; magnitude estimation; and spatial discrimination.  
🗑
Chemoreceptors   Smell, taste, changes in blood chemistry  
🗑
Mechanoreceptors   Touch, pressure, vibration, stretch, itch  
🗑
Nociceptors   Any pain causing stimuli  
🗑
Photoreceptors   Sight  
🗑
Thermoreceptors   Changes in temperature  
🗑
Tor F = There are two (2) structural classifications of receptors. Most receptors are simple and include our special sense organs   False. 2 classifications, most are simple. Complex contains special sense organs  
🗑
Which of the following receptors (corpuscles or organs) deal with proprioception   Golgi tendon organs, Joint kinesthetic receptors, Muscle spindles, Pacinian corpuscles, Ruffini’s corpuscles  
🗑
TorF - The five basic taste sensations are: sweet, salt, sour, bitter, and umami. And are mapped in different parts of the tongue   FALSE. Mapped all over tongue  
🗑
TorF -Taste is 80% dependent on smell   TRUE  
🗑
T or F - There are six (6) straplike extrinsic eye muscles: four (4) rectus and two (2) oblique muscles   True  
🗑
T or F - Light is refracted by the following components of the eye: at the cornea; entering the lens; and leaving the lens   TRUE  
🗑
What is Emmetropic eye   Focal point focused on retina  
🗑
What is Hypertropic eye   Focal point focused behind retina (far sighted)  
🗑
What is myopic eye   Focal point focused in front of retina (near sighted)  
🗑
There are two (2) types of photoreceptors, rods and cones. Visual acuity is gained when we switch from the __________ to the __________ system   Rods to cones  
🗑
T or F - Depth perception is achieved because the eyes view the same image from slightly different angles   true  
🗑
Which part(s) of the ear are involved with equilibrium   Inner ear  
🗑
The auditory (or pharyngotympanic) tube is in which part of the ear   Middle ear  
🗑
T or F - The purpose of the malleus, incus, and stapes is to transmit vibratory motion from the eardrum to the round window   False, it’s the oval window  
🗑
T or F - The receptors in the crista ampullaris respond to angular movements of the head   TRUE

🗑
T or F - The most important nerve of the cervical plexus is the phrenic nerve   TRUE

🗑
T or F - All spinal nerves except C1 participate in dermatomes   TRUE  
🗑
T or F - The patellar reflex is an example of a stretch reflex   TRUE  
🗑
T or F - A stretch reflex needs the impulse to reach the brain and come back down to cause the reaction of the muscle(s)   FALSE
