BIO 201: Case Study writing Assignment # 3: Spinal Cord and Brain 2 The list below classifies sensory receptors by the stimulus that activates them. Using your textbook or other resource, name the receptor for each stimulus type. (Complete Sentences NOT Required) a activated by touch, pressure, vibration, and stretch. b. activated by changes in temperature c activated by light or changes in light wavelengths d. activated by changes in chemical concentrations in a solution e. activated by tissue injury or situations that may lead to tissue injury Based on what you know about their stimuli, which type of sensory receptor is activated and causing Sarah's symptoms of pain and paresthesia? 3. 4. The virus infecting Sarah lies dormant in the dorsal root ganglion. What part of a neuron is located in the dorsal root ganglion? Does the dorsal root and its ganglion carry sensory input, motor output, or both Based on the pattern of skin vesicles and pain, which of Sarah's peripheral nerves is infected? To which peripheral nerve plexus does this nerve belone? 5. 6. If Sarah had skin vesicles on the anterolateral region of her neck, which peripheral nerve is infected by the virus? To which peripheral nerve plexus does this nerve belong? If Sarah had a viral infection that affected neuron function in the ventral root of the same s how would the signs and symptoms be different than those she has now? pinal nerve, 7.

Explanation / Answer

2. There are various receptor which activates on stimulation. These receive signals and then transducted for processing. The various types of recptors are -  

3. Pain are experienced by activation of Nociceptors which are free nerve ends and are connected to spinal cord. And pain is felt when tissue or cell js damaged.
