Discuss the anatomic organization of the Nervous system.
Describe general anatomical properties of sensory receptors and to know
the physiological steps of sensory transduction.
Define the following terms: threshold, adequate stimulus, receptive field,
intensity coding, and receptor adaptation.
Discuss how receptive fields are measured for different sensory modalities.
Discuss the major classification schemes for sensory receptors.
Distinguish between the terms sensory modalities and sensory quality and
gives example of each.
Discuss the conduction velocity for somatosensory fibers of different
diameters.
Explain the relationship between classification of nerve fibers based on
diameter and conduction velocity, and sensory receptors associated with
each
