- Fill in the blank: Whenever tissues are damaged, _______________________ receptors are likely to be stimulated.arrow_forwardList the response and benefit for each stimulus.arrow_forwardWhen people are tickled, light touch receptors are activated, causing a range of different responses, including squirming or movement away from the stimulus. Match the step in the tickle response homeostasis loop with the correct labelarrow_forward
- Name the receptors that are sensitive to chemicals.arrow_forwardPositive feedback loops are used in chemical messaging in the body. Below is a list of steps that describe how a positive feedback system works in chemical messaging. The list is out of order. Placed the list in the proper order. 1. A sensor in a persons finger senses a change in the bloodstream. 2. The chemical messenger triggers the production of a specialized protein in the finger in response to the original signal. 3. A chemical messenger is released from the brain and travels to the finger. 4. As the specialized protein is made in the finger, it triggers the production of even more specialized protein. 5. The brain determines that conditions are no longer in homeostasis.arrow_forwardIt is a dark and stormy night. Tired from many hours of studying Anatomy, you walk down the steps of the library and step on something that is decidedly NOT concrete. Whatever it is twists and squirms, letting out a strange squeal. In a blinding flash of lightning, you see what’s underfoot…it looks like a large black cat or squirrel with a bright white stripe down the center of the tail. Before you can scream, the darkness returns and a foul, almost unbearable stench hits your nostrils. You run as fast as you can for your car, but too late…you are drenched in the overpowering odor. IN PARAGRAPH FORMAT, describe the following in the same story-like manner as above. Describe how your ANS limbic system respond to such an event. What division/structures are being triggered and how does your body respond? Include response of major organs effected. Identify which of your senses have been used. From initial receptor to regulatory center to any motor output, trace the pathway of…arrow_forward
- A response is the body's reaction to the stimulus. What's the response in these situations? Stimulus: You hear a loud noise · A large dog runs toward you, growling and barking You eat a large candy bar You have not eaten in six hours You have strep throatarrow_forwardImagine yourself with a flying object coming at your head. Explain how the nervous tissue and the muscle tissue in your body work to coordi- nate a response that stimulus. Be sure to explain function of each type of tissue in your response.arrow_forwardWhen a visual pigment absorbs photons of light, it changes its molecular shape and at the same time releases energy. The release sets off a chain of chemical events leading to an electrical signal. The last event described is ________. transduction integration conduction stimulationarrow_forward
