Study Notes
Mechanoreceptors Response to Stimuli
- Mechanoreceptors most adequately respond to mechanical stimuli, such as pressure, vibration, and stretching.
- Mechanoreceptors respond to stimuli by converting mechanical energy into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the nervous system.
- The primary effect of stimuli on mechanoreceptors is the activation of sensory nerve endings, leading to the transmission of sensory information to the brain.
