How is pain sensation modulated by other sensory input? Please
briefly describe the mechanism and speculate on why such a
modulatory pathway evolved.
Please leave a detailed description. Thank you :)
Describe the similarities between pain and the other somatic
sensations. Describe the differences.
Explain the mechanism of sensory transduction in
temperature-sensing neurons.
What are the sensory implications of the different crossover
points of the anterolateral and dorsal column ascending pathways in
patients with injuries that damage half of the spinal cord at a
given level?
Describe three features of sensory
processing that occur at the receptor level where a
sensation is first detected. How is information about the stimulus
coded before it is passed into the
CNS?
Describe briefly how the laser is modulated? Using the simple
rate equation for carrier and photon density, explain why the
high-speed small-signal response will behavior like L-C circuit?
Why the bandwidth (resonant frequency) increases as the current
increases?
pain an unpleasant but extremely important sensation, why? how
does the body sense pain? what makes the experience of pain
different for different people? Answer from Physiological
perspective.
In the concept of sensory physiology, please describe the
following:
What is a sensory receptor? What is its function and
structure?
Describe the generation of a “receptor potential” and explain
the differences between a receptor potential and an action
potential
What is the mechanism of adaptation in a sensory receptor?
Classify and describe the sensory receptors depending on their
adaptation abilities.
Summarize sensory information is processed in plants...please
include the following
Describe the processes by which sensory cells receive and
transduce external signals
Describe how signals are transmitted within plants
Describe how cells produce a response
Give an example of a specific stimulus and how it is processed
into a response to support your answer
