What additional sensory information would you expect a person with impairment of organs of equilibrium touse to supplement their relative lack of some sensory information?
Regarding the anterolateral pathway,
(1) what type of sensory receptor is involved, and what type of sensory information is being provided to the brain,
(2) what is the location of each of the sensory neurons within the chain of three neurons that compose this pathway, and
(3) what specific region of the brain receives the sensory information?
The sensory systems are complex and have the amazing ability to respond to different types of environmental stimuli. What is one aspect of the sensory systems we have looked at (gustatory, olfactory, or visual) that you found particularly interesting and would like to know more about?

- Which sensory receptors permit you to perform actions such as finding your way into bed in the dark?arrow_forwardUnilateral Cerebral strokes can cause deficits in motor control, somatic sensation and vision. However, they do not cause deficits in hearing. The explanation for this is: Auditory information does not reach the cortex Auditory information only goes to one hemisphere. Auditory information goes to both hemispheres How are the outer segments of photoreceptors positioned? between bipolar cells and horizontal cells in the outermost layer of the retina in the ganglion cell layer farthest from the pigment epitheliumarrow_forwardWhat sensory pathway (tract) transmits pain sensation to the brain? Does anesthesia eliminate the generation of pain stimulus?arrow_forward
- The sensory system is involved in all the following, except :-a- initiation of reflex movementsb- initiation of voluntary movementsc- learning processesd- initiation of emotional responsesarrow_forwardPeripheral senses are also involved in proprioception and let us know where our body parts are in space. What are these sensors and how do they work?arrow_forwardIn what way does the overall magnitude of a stimulus affect the just-noticeable difference in the perception of that stimulus?arrow_forward
- Why is pain considered an subjective sensory experience and not an objective sensory experience?arrow_forwardIn the process of sensory coding Recruitment of additional neurons occurs with a weak stimulus in order to make the stimulus stronger. The larger the receptive field of a sensory receptor, the greater the expected acuity and the more accurate the two-point discrimination. Lateral inhibition of neighboring receptors resulting in a relative reduction of action potentials in the neighboring second order neurons would be expected to increase acuity. A receptor potential that remains suprathreshold into the absolute refractory period will result in additional action potentials.arrow_forwardWhere would you expect the density of sensory receptors to be the highest? The lips The leg O The back of the hand O The palm of the handarrow_forward
