Solutions

Expert Solution

A.You see red - Photoreceptor

B.Someone bumps into you - Mechanoreceptor

C.The doctor tests your knee-jerk reflex -Mechanoreceptors

D.Your internal body temperature changes -Thermoreceptors

E.You burn yourself - nociceptors

F.You smell an apple - Chemoreceptor

G.You taste an apple -Chemoreceptor

H. your stomach is stretched full -Mechanoreceptor

I.You touch an icecube - Thermoreceptors

J.You hear a voice - Mechanoreceptors

The external stimulus for the mechanoreceptors are the touch, pressure,sound, motion and pull , travels through the mechanical gated channels and enters to the intracellular signal transduction pathways.The photoreceptors are found found in the retinal layer which is involved in visual transduction.Thermoreceptors are functions in sensory detection of the cold and heat, these are the nerve cells present throughout the skin layer.Nociceptors are the pain sensory receptors which gets stimulated by a damaging stimuli.The chemoreceptors are the receptors which get stimulated by the chemical stimuli such as smell,taste etc.
