What does sustentacular cells secrete?
quick and dirty: sustentacular cells are cells that provide structure and support to other cells, like sensory receptor cells. They are similar to glial cells in the nervous system.
Where is the olfactory epithelium found?
The olfactory epithelium occupies an area of about 5 cm2 in the roof of the nasal cavity. The specialized receptor cells in the olfactory epithelium are surrounded by supporting cells, non-sensory epithelial cells. The olfactory receptor cells are bipolar neurons whose olfactory cilia extend outward from the epithelium.
What process occurs as specialized receptor cells in the retina respond to only some features movement colors or edges of each stimulus?
sensory reduction
Are auditory receptor cells located in the anvil?
yes the auditory receptor cells are located in the anvil
What is a reflex arc made of?
'Made of' is difficult to say, but the reflex arc includes within it Sensory Nerve Fibres, Receptor Cells and Sensory Neurones. The effect of these is to bypass the normal interface with the central nervous system, so that the body responds instantly to potentially dangerous stimuli.
What is the function of Tactile cells?
Functions as a sensory receptor for touch.
What structures are the sensory receptor cells active in dim light?
Rods
What is an organ that contains receptor cells called?
A sensory organ. Sensory organs: skin, nose, tongue, ear and eyes.
What are the sensory receptors for eyes and nose?
The sensory receptors for the eyes are the optic nerve and the retina. The sensory receptor for the nose are the olfactory nerves.
What special cell in our skin that allows us to sense pressure heat cold and pain?
Sensory receptor cells

What is sensory receptor for hearing?
A Sensory Receptor is a cell within the peripheral nervous system that gathers information from the environment and from inside your body. Answer from: Science Textbook! I Hope I Helped You!
What process occurs as specialized receptor cells in the retina respond to only some features movement colors or edges of each stimulus?
sensory reduction
What does the phrase density of receptor cells mean?
Density of receptor cells are the amount of receptor cells in a specific area of the body. This could be in the lips.
What system is the sensory organs in?
sensory nervous system. Each sensory organ contains millions of receptor cells (dendrites) that send cell signals to the brain through the process of cell signaling. in some cases signals are sent directly to the spinal cord.
