NEET PG DENTAL EXAM

Detailed explanation-1: -All impulses from the receptors transmit as nerve signals and what ultimately determines how we perceive the stimulus is where the nerve fiber terminates in the central nervous system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Receptors are present in all parts of the body for example in the skin, eyes, nose tongue, etc. They detect the signals and then send them to the brain in the form of electrical signals. If these receptors are damaged then they will not detect the input which leads to harm to our bodies in dangerous situations.

Detailed explanation-3: -Interoceptors (visceroceptors) respond to stimuli occurring in the body from visceral organs and blood vessels. These receptors are the sensory neurons associated with the autonomic nervous system. Proprioceptors respond to stimuli occurring in skeletal muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints.

Detailed explanation-4: -Receptors are bound up with functions such as cell activation, cell adhesion and signaling pathways. These functions play a role with the help of receptors. Cell activation including T cells, dendritic cells, B cells, granulocytes and NK cells, is an important process in innate and adaptive immune system.
