Answer:

They are called mechanoreceptors.

Explanation:

Mechanoreceptors are sensory receptors belonging to the peripheral nervous system. The functions of sensory receptors is to enable detection of changes (by way of stimuli) in the external environment and also monitor the internal environment. The stimuli are of various sources and different types.

Different types of cells sense different types of stimuli. Receptor cells that sense chemical stimuli are called chemoreceptors, osmoreceptors detect changes in solute concentration of body fluids, thermoreceptors sense temperature stimuli, nociceptors, and mechanoreceptors that sense pressure and vibration, sensation of sound and body position.

aliina [53]

Answer:

Cell membrane/plasma membrane;

Nucleus;

Cytoplasm

Explanation:

Makena's model is synonymous with that of an animal cell.

The soft flexible putter layer of the egg can be likened to the cell membrane of an animal cell. Cell membrane, also called plasma membrane, just like the soft and flexible exterior of the egg, is a semi-permeable that serves as a barrier between the external environment of the cell and it's inner environment. It controls what goes in and out of the cell, as well as help in the selectively exchange of ions and molecules, in and out of the cell.

The yolk in Makena's model represents the nucleus of an animal cell.

Also, the surrounding area between the yolk and the exterior of the egg, represents the cytoplasm found in animal cells. The cytoplasm is filled with fluids and surrounds the nucleus.
