Sensory Receptors
Receptor sensitivity
Receptive field
Area is monitored by a
single receptor cell
The larger the receptive
field, the more difficult it is
to localize a stimulus

Temperature sensations
A & P Fall-2013
The dermis
Skeletal muscles
The liver
The hypothalamus
Conducted along the same pathways that carry pain sensations
Sent to:
the reticular formation
the thalamus
the primary sensory cortex (to a lesser extent)

4) Tactile corpuscles:
Also called Meissner corpuscles
Perceive sensations of fine touch,
pressure, and low-frequency vibration
Adapt to stimulation within 1 second
after contact
Fairly large structures
Most abundant in the eyelids, lips, fingertips,
nipples, and external genitalia

6) Ruffini corpuscles
Also sensitive to pressure and distortion of the
skin
Located in the reticular (deep) dermis
Tonic receptors that show little if any adaptation

Sensory Pathways
Somatic Sensory Pathways
1) Posterior column pathway
Axons synapse
On third-order neurons in one of the ventral nuclei of the
thalamus
Nuclei sort the arriving information according to:
the nature of the stimulus
the region of the body involved

Sensory Pathways
1) Posterior Column Pathway
Processing in the thalamus
Determines whether you perceive a given sensation as fine
touch, as pressure, or as vibration
