Sensory functions deal with:

Correct answer: B. Receptors

  • A. Inhibition
  • B. Receptors
  • C. Glands
  • D. Muscles

Explanation

Sensory functions are closely associated with receptors. Receptors are specialized structures, such as those for touch, temperature, pain, taste, and smell, that detect stimuli from the environment or within the body. Sensory neurons transmit signals from these receptors to the central nervous system (CNS) for processing and integration, allowing organisms to perceive and respond to sensory stimuli.

About Coordination and Control

Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
