Hello Friends:
I received this question from a student. I am admittedly a little foggy, but
I was wondering if anyone had a relatively succinct answer to it - or if the
student is basically just asking me to rehash the material on the cutaneous
senses from the S & P chapter. Here is the excerpt from the discussion board
post:
"How do the receptors
measure the intensity of the senses. For example, if
someone is being pinched, how does the receptor relay
pressure against the skin to the brain?"
Any help you can give would be appreciated.
