- Match each sensory receptor to the type of stimulus to which it is likely to respond. (1) chemoreceptor (2) pain receptor (3) thermoreceptor (4) mechanoreceptor (5) photoreceptor A. approaching headlights B. a change in blood pressure C. the smell of roses D. an infected tooth E. a cool breezearrow_forwardWhich statement is FALSE? A. The membranous labyrinth includes the cochlear duct, utricle, and saccule. B. Endolymph is located inside the cochlear duct. C. The cochlear duct is the scala media. D. The scala tympani and scala vestibuli contain endolymph. E. None of the statements is false.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is accurate about the maculae of the vestibular apparatus? a. They detect rotational movements of the head. b. They are located in the semicircular canal. c. Nerve signals are generated when the otolithic membrane bends the stereocilia of the hair cells. d.

- Which type of sensory receptor enables you to feel the position ofyour legs, even if a table hides your legs from sight?a. Thermoreceptor c. Chemoreceptorb. Photoreceptor d. Proprioceptorarrow_forwardWhich of the following is an example of adequate stimulus? O A. Pressure waves that hit the rods and cones. B. Light that hit the cochlea. C. Changes in velocity that are detected by the vestibular organs. D. Alpha motor activation.arrow_forwardWhich of the following are correct? Which one or more? a. Auditory fatigue is the increase in threshold after exposure to a loud sound. Auditory adaptation is a reduction in response of the auditory receptors to a sound over time followed by a steady state. b. The change in auditory thresholds is independent of the intensity, but dependent on the duration of the loud sound. c. Exposure to loud sounds is unable to damage the hair cells in the inner ear and therefore cannot lead to a permanent threshold shift. d. Auditory adaptation is the increase in threshold after exposure to a loud sound. Auditory fatigue is a reduction in response of the auditory receptors to a sound over time followed by a steady state.arrow_forward
