Sensory Receptors

What type of receptor is responsible for detecting sound?

• Chemoreceptor

• Photoreceptor

• Mechanoreceptor

• Thermoreceptor

What do chemoreceptors detect?

• Light and sound

• Tastes and odor

• Temperature and pressure

• Motion and balance

What is the difference between external and internal sensory receptors?

• External receptors detect stimuli from the environment, while internal receptors monitor the body's internal conditions.

• Both external and internal receptors detect stimuli from the environment.

• Internal receptors are only found in the brain, while external receptors are found throughout the body.

• External receptors are responsible for monitoring blood pressure, while internal receptors detect light.

How do sensory receptors communicate with the brain?

• By sending electrical signals through neurons.

• By releasing hormones into the bloodstream.

• By generating heat to stimulate brain activity.

• By using chemical signals to communicate with muscles.

What is the main function of the ears as a sense organ?

• To detect sound waves.

• To regulate balance and posture.

• To perceive taste and flavor.

• To sense temperature changes.

Which of the following is a sense organ?

• Muscles

What do chemoreceptors process?

• Light

• Sound

• Chemicals

• Temperature

What is the specialized sensory receptor that detects the body's internal and external temperature?

• Thermoreceptor

• Photoreceptor

• Mechanoreceptor

• Chemoreceptor

What is the function of photoreceptors?

• Detect light and enable vision.

• Regulate blood flow in the eyes.

• Control eye movement and focus.

• Protect the eye from harmful UV rays.
