Question

Sensory Physiology

Pick two types of sensory receptors:

A. Pick two different modalities that would stimulate them

B. Put these modalities in order with respect to adequate stimulus

So if i was to pick, Photoreceptors and Thermoreceptors ( these would be the sensory receptors) and then the modalities for photoreceptors is vision and for thermoreceptors
it is temperature.

Then how do you determine the order of the modalities?

Answer 1

OK, which reacts quicker, vision or temp sensing is the way I read it.
