Type I cutaneous mechanoreceptor (Merkel disc), Type II cutaneous mechanoreceptor (Ruffini corpuscle), thermoreceptor, muscle spindles are the receptors fires continuously as long as a stimulation is applied. Thus, option b, f, g, h are correct.

<h3>what are the role of receptors?</h3>

Receptors are the sensing protein molecule which bind to specific molecule in cell called as ligand.

The ligand can be a drug or any endogenous molecule like neurotransmitters, hormones, etc.

Based on molecular structure and mode of action four major types of receptors are found such as G-protein coupled receptors, ligand-gated ion channel receptors, Nuclear receptors, Kinase-linked receptors

Almost all the receptors have endogenous ligands such serotonin, acetylcholine etc.

Hence, option b, f, g, h are correct.

Answer:

1. You will be unable to smell

3. Your olfactory receptor cells will no longer be able to respond  to molecules trapped in the mucus.

Explanation:

The Olfactory receptors are the receptors present in the olfactory neurons which detect different odorants or smell.

The olfactory receptors are embedded in the epithelium or mucous lining of the nose in which one extension of the cell body reaches the epithelium surface and branches into cilia like structures which sense the odour.

If the axons of the olfactory cells are broken then the cells will not be able to respond to the molecules trapped in the mucus and thus no detection of odour. The signal will not be generated in response and thus will not be sent to the brain. Thus, the person will not be able to smell.

Thus, Options-1 and 3 are correct.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

e. staphylococcal enterotoxin

Explanation:

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is a toxin that is produced by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. It is a toxin found inside the gastrointestinal tracts of the human body which is why it is called an enterotoxin and it results in food poisoning when consumed by humans.

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is proteinous in nature and it can be found on dairy products such as milk or cheeses that have been contaminated by Staphylococcus aureus.

After consumption of the contaminated milk or cheeses, the person begins to experience symptoms of nausea, diarrhea as well as vomiting.

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is a very heat stable toxin which means even though you heat up a food contaminated with this toxin, the bacteria may die by the toxins would still remain in the food.

The best way to avoid food poisoning by Staphylococcal enterotoxin is to avoid eating contaminated foods.
