Nervous System
Senses
Sensory Receptors: Stimulus Origin
Exteroceptors
Located in the skin and special senses
Stimulus comes from enviroment
Interocepters
Stimulus comes from internal organs
Proprioceptor
Stimulus comes from skeletal muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints
Sensory Receptors: Stimulus Type
Chemoceptors
Detect chemicles
Thermoceptors
Detect heat
Nociceptors
Detect pain
Mechanoceptors
Baroreceptor (Blood Pressure)
Photoreceptors
Detect light
Components of the Eye
Tunics of the Eye
Vascular
Choroid
Deeply pigmented which helps absorb light and prevent it from scattering
Nourishes the outer layer
Fibourous
Sclera
Protects and is an anchor for extrinsic eye muscles
Made up of dense connective tissue
White of the eye
Cornea
Clear/transparent which allows light into the eye
Involved with focusing light on the retina
Inner/Neural
Retina
Contains photoreceptors
Optic Nerve
Connects the eye to the brain
Rods
More abundant
Sensative to light
Black and White
Helps us see at night
Cones
Allow us to see in color
Lens
Posterior to the Iris
Focuses light on the retina
Iris
Intrinsic eye muscle
Sphincter muscle the will dilate or restrict to let more or less light in
Optic Disc
Blind spot because it has no photoreceptors
Macula Lutea
Exactly opposite of the pupil
Also called precise posterior pole
Location of clearest vision
Fovea Centralis
Center of the macula lutea
Location of clearest vision
Visual Pathway
Cornea
Pupil
Lens
Posterior Segment
Retina
Olfaction
Components:
Olfactory epithelial cells made up of pseudostratifed columnar
Located in the roof of the nasal cavity
