biceps femorus, semimembranosus, and semitendinosus make up this group
hamstrings
calf muscle
gastrocnemius
tendon behind ankle
achilles tendon
muscle down length of shin
tibialis anterior
compare amount of receptors in the skin on various parts of the body
most sensitive/more receptors (in order): finger tip, nose, tongue
least sensitive/less receptors: hand back and palm
what does the proprioceptive sense do?
allows us to recognize the location and rate of movement of one part of the body in relation to the other parts...skills in experiment improved with each try
tongue map
sweet - tip
bitter - back
salty - front sides
sour - back sides
how cold and heat receptors compare
skin has more heat receptors than cold receptors, so is more sensitive to heat
taste inheritance
people can only perceive certain tastes if they have the gene that allows them to, one example is phenylthiocarbamide (PTC)
taste and smell
while some basics can be tasted without smell (like salt), smell is necessary to get the full flavor of something

cornea
portion that gives eye its "color"

spaces lateral to lens
posterior chamber
gelatinous material filling eyeball
vitreous body
iridescent portion of choroid
tapetum lucidum
nerve coming off back of eyeball
optic nerve
small circle covering area where optic nerve enters eye
optic disc
most lateral section of ear, up to eardrum
outer ear
portion of ear containing ear ossicles
middle ear
most medial portion of ear, everything medial to stapes
inner ear
outer fleshy part of ear
auricle
outer ear canal
external auditory meatus
eardrum
tympanic membrane

malleus
incus
stapes

first part, "bulb" of inner ear
vestibule
fluid-filled tubes in inner ear
semicircular canal
shell-like part of inner ear
cochlea
nerve extending from cochlea
auditory nerve
function of ear ossicles
transmit sound waves from tympanic membrane to inner ear
function of eustachian tubes
allow middle ear to equalize with surrounding atmospheric pressure
how semicircular canals relate to equilibrium
3 canals in three planes at right angles to each other which detect dynamic equilibrium as movement of the fluid inside bends haircells and generates electric potentials that are sent to the brain for interpretation
