Peripheral Nervous System, Perception, Response, The receptor sends a…

- - - - THERMORECEPTORS (Respond to temperature change)
      - CHEMORECEPTORS (Respond to specific chemicals)
      - NOCICEPTORS (Respond to damaging stimuli)
      - PHOTORECEPTORS (Respond to light)
      - MECHANORECEPTORS (Respond to touch/pressure)
    - - INTEROCEPTORS
      - PROPRIOCEPTORS
      - EXTEROCEPTOR
    - - Nonencapsulated Nerve Endings
      - Tendon Organs

        MOTOR NERVES
  - - - Production Tear
      - Eyebrow Prevent sweat from trickling into eyes
        
        *Eyelashes Trigger reflex blinking
        
        Eyelid Cover and protect the eye
      - Retina
      - Function of the structure
  - - - Gustatory epithelial cells - chemoreceptore
      - Basal epithelial Cells - Stem cells that replace gustatory epithelial cells as they get damaged or burnt
  - - - When the smell receptors are stimulated, signals travel along the olfactory nerve to the olfactory bulb. The olfactory bulb is underneath the front of your brain just above the nasal cavity. Signals are sent from the olfactory bulb to other parts of the brain to be interpreted as a smell you may recognize
