BIOL 373L STUDY SET EXAM QUESTIONS WITH
100% COMPLETE SOLUTIONS
Sensory cells - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-respond to factors such as light pressure
| | | | | | | | | | |
and the chemical nature of certain molecules by creating electrical signals which
| | | | | | | | | | | |
are sent to the CNS
| | | |
Visual acuity - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the degree of detail the eye can distinguish
| | | | | | | | | | |
myopia - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-near lighted, light focuses in front of the retina,
| | | | | | | | | | | |
unable to see far, distant objects are out of focus
| | | | | | | | |
hyperopia - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-far sighted, hard to focus objects close to the
| | | | | | | | | | | |
eye
astigmatism - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the blurring or distortion of the visual image
| | | | | | | | | |
caused by a defective curvature of the refractive surfaces of the eye
| | | | | | | | | | | |
color blindness - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-a diminished ability to sense color
| | | | | | | | | |
accurately
taste buds - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-consist of barrel shaped groupings of sensory
| | | | | | | | | | |
cells located on the tongue and in the epithelial lining of the mouth
| | | | | | | | | | | |
, color blindness is caused by - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-a deficiency in the retinas
| | | | | | | | | | | |
systems for converting red blue of green light into receptor potentials
| | | | | | | | | |
ichikawa color vision test - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-measures the perception of
| | | | | | | | | |
color
tonic olfaction - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-or slowly-adapting sensors produces a
| | | | | | | | |
continuous sequence of AP as long as the stimulus last
| | | | | | | | |
Phasic olfaction - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-or rapidly adapting receptors detect a
| | | | | | | | | |
stimulus of constant strength, send a stream of AP of steadily decreasing
| | | | | | | | | | | |
frequency to the CNS | | |
is the ear more efficient at detecting sound waves that are conducted through
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
bone or air - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-air
| | | | |
Air conduction should be greater than bone conduction and so the patient should
| | | | | | | | | | | |
|be able to hear the tuning fork next to the pinna (outer ear) after they can no
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
longer hear it when held against the mastoid. during the RHinnes test
| | | | | | | | | | |
proprioceptors - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-send sensory info to the brain regarding
| | | | | | | | | |
the tension of the skeletal muscles and the positions of the limbs
| | | | | | | | | | |
the special senses are - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-vision
| | | | | |
taste
olfaction
hearing
