Receptors function to produce the general, or somatic, senses and to initiate various reflexes necessary for maintaining
Sense organs called __________ make it possible for the body to respond to stimuli caused by changes occurring in our external or internal environment.
The general function of receptors is to respond to stimuli by converting them to ___________
Receptors responsible for the special senses of smell, taste, vision, hearing, and equilibrium are grouped into ____________ or into complex organs as the eye and ear
The receptor potential is a graded response, graded to the strength of the _____
When a receptor potential reaches a certain threshold, it triggers an action potential in the ________
 Receptors exhibit _______ which means that the magnitude of the receptor decreases over a period in response to a continuous stimulus.
The general sense organs consist of of ________ widely distributed throughout the body in the skin, mucosa, connective tissues, muscles, tendons, joints and viscera.
Sensations produced by these receptors are called the __________. Their distribution is not uniform in all areas
 Receptors can be classified according to their _____ in the body, the ________ that causes them to respond, and their ______..
hree groups of receptors can be identified by their location: ____________, _______________, ____________.
Exteroceptors are located on or very near the body surface and respond most frequently to stimuli that arise external to the body itself. They are also called cutaneous receptors because of their _______________. Examples are those that detect pressure, touch, pain, and temperature.
________________(interoceptors) are located internally, within the substance of body organs, and when stimulated provide information about the internal environment. They are activated by stimuli such as pressure, stretching, and chemical changes that may originate in major blood vessels, intestines, and urinary bladder. It is involved in mediating sensations such as hunger and thirst.
_______________ are a specialized type of visceroceptors. They are less numerous and generally more specialized than other internally placed receptors, and their location is limited to skeletal muscle, joint capsules, and tendons. They provide us with information about body movement, orientation in space and muscle stretch
____________: They are activated by mechanical stimuli that “deform” or change the position of the receptor, resulting in the generation of a receptor potential. Examples are pressure applied to the skin or to blood vessels, or caused by stretch or pressure in muscle, tendon, or lung tissue.
They are activated by either the amount or the changing concentration of certain chemicals. Taste and smell depend on chemoreceptors.
. Thermoreceptors: They are activated by _______________
Nociceptors: It is activated by intense stimuli of any type that results in _________. The cause may be a toxic chemical, intense light, sound, pressure, or heat.
Photoreceptors: It is found only in the ___________. They respond to light stimuli if the intensity is great enough to generate a receptor potential
