Sensory receptor that is located at or near surface of body; provides information about external environment; transmits sensations of hearing, sight, taste, touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
Exteroceptors
E
Sensory Receptor that is located in blood vessels and viscera; provides information about internal environment; transmits sensations such as pain, pressure, fatigue, hunger, thirst, and nausea from within the body
Interoceptors
I
Sensory Receptor that is located in muscles, tendons, joints, and the internal ear; provide information about body position and movement; transmit information related to muscle tension, position and tension of joints, and equilibrium
Proprioceptors
P
Sensory receptor that detects pressure or stretching; stimuli are related to touch, pressure, proprioception, hearing, equilibrium, and blood pressure
Mechanoreceptors
M
Sensory receptors that detect pain, usually as a result of physical or chemical damage to tissue.
Nociceptors
N
Sensory receptors that detect taste in mouth; smell in nose; and chemicals such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, water and glucose in body fluids
Chemoreceptors
C
Type of sensory receptors that consist of simple structures and neural pathways that are associated with general senses (touch, pressure, heat, cold, and pain)
Simple
S

T
T or F?
The ganglia that make up the sympathetic trunks are also called prevertebral or collateral ganglia
F
T or F?
Parasympathetic preganglionic neurons originate in the nuclei of the oculomotor (III), facial (VII), glossopharyngeal (IX), or Vagus (X) nerves, or in lateral gray horns of the sacral region of the spinal cord.
T
T or F?
An event occurring during the fight-or-flight response is increased urine production due to blood being shunted to the kidneys
F
T or F?
In an autonomic reflex arc, the preganglionic neuron conducts motor impulses from the central nervous system to an autonomic ganglion, and a postganglionic neuron conducts motor impulses from the ganglion to an effector
T
A plexus located mostly posterior to each lung are ______
Pulmonary plexus
The largest autonomic plexus; consist of 2 large ganglia and a network of fibers that surround the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries
Celiac (solar) plexus
Plexus located anterior to the fifth lumbar vertebra; supplies pelvic viscera
Hypogastric plexus
Plexus containing the inferior mesenteric ganglion; supplies the large intestine.
inferior mesenteric plexus
