Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/2point) to see a quick demonstration of two-point discrimination. Touching a specialized caliper to the surface of the skin will measure the distance between two points that are perceived as distinct stimuli versus a single stimulus. The patient keeps their eyes closed while the examiner switches between using both points of the caliper or just one. The patient then must indicate whether one or two stimuli are in contact with the skin. Why is the distance between the caliper points closer on the fingertips as opposed to the palm of the hand? And what do you think the distance would be on the arm, or the shoulder?

Crude touch is more effective than fine touch in evoking an emotional response because :-a- its provoking stimuli are strongerb- its central pathway connects with the limbic systemc- it is stimulated during emotional excitementd- the provoking stimuli have an emotional nature
Double pain sensation that is occasionally felt following painful stimulation of the skin is due to :-a- repetition of the painful stimulusb- presence of dual pain pathwaysc- perception of pain at two different higher centersd- application of two painful stimuli simultaneously at two different sites
Cutaneous pain :-a- is always sharp in characterb- is transmitted by Aδ sensory fibersc- is always followed by hyperalgesiad- evokes spasm of nearby muscles
Parietal lobe neglect :-a- is characterized by inability to use skeletal muscles on the opposite side of the bodyb- is characterized by inability to use skeletal muscles on the same side of the bodyc- results from damage of primary sensory cortex.d- causes loss of sensations on the same side of the body
General sensations :-a- originate from all sensory receptors of the bodyb- are mediated by somatic sensory fibers onlyc- include the sense of movementd- include the sense of equilibrium
Pain produced by muscle spasm results from :-a- mechanical stimulation of pain receptor by muscle spasmb- decreased release of lactic acid from the spastic muscle fibersc- release of compounds from the spastic muscle which increase the threshold for stimulation of pain receptorsd- decreased oxygen supply to the muscle
