Vestibular senses - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Mechanical senses transduce mechanical energy into nerve impulses ex) somatosensation, vestibular, hearing Chemical senses transduce energy from chemical reactions into nerve impulses ex) nociception, taste, olfaction to evaluate the qualities of substances we ingest into our bodies, namely, the food we eat (or drink) and the air we breathe Photosensors transduce electromagnetic energy into nerve impulses ex) vision Taste The sense of taste arises from sensory receptors on the tongue called ...
