Across
- 2. type of pathways that transmit info to many areas of the brainstem and cerebrum
- 5. sense of the functions and state of internal body organs
- 6. another word for somatosensation
- 8. this is when there is pain felt in one region of the body that is not the site of the injury
- 9. end of the peripheral neurons where somatosensory receptors are located
- 13. touch receptors that respond to mechanical deformation of the receptor
- 14. type of pathways that gives info about action and type of stimulation to cortex
- 15. the tract that is involved in pain stimuli commanding attention and interfering with sleep
- 16. what somatosensory receptors do with a stimulus when it changes it into an electrical signal
- 17. the number of receptors within a given area of body surface
- 18. type of touch that is light and associated with emotional bonding
- 20. type of receptors that are stimulated by physical deformation of the receptor itself or the surrounding area
- 21. the thalamic tract that is involved with tactile and proprioceptive input from the face
- 22. also known as fast adapting; when a receptor adapts quickly to stimulus and stops responding
- 23. pain receptors that are sensitive to stimuli that damage or can damage
- 25. the tract is involved in turning the eyes and head toward the source of noxious input
- 27. specialized mechanoreceptors located in the muscles, tendons, joints, and vestibular apparatus of the inner ear
- 28. chemical receptors that respond to substances released by cells
- 29. also known as slow adapting; when a receptor continues to fire during entire presentation of the stimulus
- 30. area of skin innervated by a single afferent neuron
- 31. sensory information from the skin and musculoskeletal systems
- 32. symptoms of this includes impair conscious proprioception and vibration, along with incoordination
Down
- 1. the type of neuron that is found on the first order neuron
- 3. type of regions that tend to have smaller diversity of receptors than distal regions
- 4. the area of skin innervated by axons from cell bodies in a single dorsal root
- 7. sense of direct interactions with the external world and its impact on the body
- 10. it’s functions include discriminative touch, vibration, and conscious proprioception
- 11. an aversive response to seemingly non-noxious tactile stimuli
- 12. type of pathways that bring unconscious proprioceptive and other movement-related information to the cerebellum
- 19. temperature receptors that respond to heat or cooling
- 24. type of touch that detects objects that contact skin and is associated with fine motor coordination
- 26. sense of one’s own body, involving sensation from muscles, joints, and tendons
- 31. the tract that is involved with emotions, personality, and movement
- 32. it’s functions include discriminative pain, discriminative temperature, and crude/coarse touch
