The General Senses
Sensory Basics• Sensory receptors—Specialized
cells or cell processes that monitor external or internal conditions. Simplest are free nerve endings.
Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The General Senses
More Sensory Basics• Receptive field—The area monitored
by a single receptor cell• Adaptation—Reduction in sensitivity
at a receptor or along a sensory pathway in the presence of a constant stimulus.

The General Senses
General versus Special Senses• General senses—Temperature, pain,
touch, pressure, vibration, and proprioception. Receptors throughout the body
• Special senses—Smell, taste, vision, balance, and hearing. Receptors located in sense organs (e.g., ear, eye).
Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Key NoteStimulation of a receptor produces action potentials that propagate along the axon of a sensory neuron. The frequency or pattern of action potentials contains information about the stimulus. A person’s perception of the nature of that stimulus depends on the path it takes inside the CNS.

The General Senses
The General Senses
Pain Definitions• Nociceptors—Receptors for tissue damage
to lead to the sensation of pain• Referred pain—Perception of pain in a part
of the body not actually stimulated• Fast (prickling) pain—Localized pain carried
quickly to the CNS on myelinated axons• Slow (burning) pain—Generalized pain
carried on slow unmyelinated axons
Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The General Senses
Temperature• Thermoreceptors detect temperature
change• Free nerve endings• Found in dermis, skeletal muscle, liver,

The Special Senses—Vision
Key NoteLight passes through the cornea, crosses the anterior cavity to the lens, transits the lens, crosses the posterior chamber, and then penetrates the retina to stimulate the photoreceptors. Cones, most abundant at the fovea and macula lutea, provide detailed color vision in bright light. Rods, dominant in the peripheral retina, provide coarse color-free vision in dim light.

Movement of tympanic membrane causes displacement of the auditory ossicles.
Movement of the stapes at the oval window establishes pressure waves in the perilymph of the vestibular duct.
The pressure waves distort the basilar membrane on their way to the round window of the tympanic duct.
Vibrations of the basilar membrane causes vibration of hair cells against the tectorial membrane.
Information about the region and the intensity of stimulation is relayed to the CNS over the cochlear branch of cranial nerve VIII.

Equilibrium and HearingAuditory Pathways
• Hair cells excite sensory neurons• Sensory neurons located in spiral
ganglion• Afferent axons form cochlear branch of
vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII)• Synapses in cochlear nucleus in medulla• Neurons relay to midbrain• Midbrain relays to thalamus• Thalamus relays to auditory cortex
(temporal lobe) in a frequency mapCopyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Equilibrium and HearingKey Note
Balance and hearing both rely on hair cells. Which stimulus excites a particular group depends on the structure of the associated sense organ. In the semicircular ducts, fluid movement due to head rotation is sensed. In the utricle and saccule, shifts in the position of otoliths by gravity is sensed. In the cochlea, sound pressure waves distort the basilar membrane.

Aging and the Senses
Impact of Aging on Sensory Ability• Gradual reduction in smell and taste
sensitivity as receptors are lost• Lens changes lead to presbyopia
(loss of near vision)• Chance of cataract increases• Progressive loss of hearing
sensitivity as receptors are lost (presbycusis)
