252) Psychology has an important role to play at all stages of chronic illnesses such as coronary heart disease (CHD). But which

one of the following is usually NOT the case in terms of the psychology behind such an illness?
a) Someone who believes that ‘lots of people recover from heart attacks’ may lead an inactive and sedentary lifestyle.
b) If someone has a history of heart attacks in their family and is resigned to that fate, that person is more likely to develop the illness either by affecting behavior or by having an impact on the immune system.
c) A person who copes with their illness by taking definite action and making plans about how to prevent it from deteriorating is in a state of denial and may make the situation worse.
d) Believing that a heart attack is due to a genetic weakness rather than a product of lifestyle may mean that a person is less likely to attend a rehabilitation class and be less likely to try and change the way they behave.

Which subtype of type a fibers transmits signals that are interpreted and perceived as pain?
borishaifa [10]

Delta is a type of fibre that transmits signals that are interpreted and perceived as pain.

<h3>Delta fibres</h3>

A delta fibres (also known as A fibres) are a type of sensory fibre. They respond to cold and pressure stimuli, and as nociceptors, their stimulation is perceived as fast/first pain input. Because they are thinly myelinated, they transmit impulses quicker than unmyelinated C fibres but slower than other, thicker myelinated "A" class fibres.

Structure

They have myelinated axons that are thin (2 to 5 m in diameter) and have a moderate conduction velocity, or speed at which a nerve signal moves (2 to 30 m/s). These nerve fibres make up the afferent portion of the reflex arc that causes the body to "draw away" from noxious stimuli because they are linked to acute (sharp) pain (e.g. retracting your hand away from a hot stove). A part of A fibres is also linked to pressure and temperature perception (also known as "cold receptors" in mammals). Contrarily, slow-conducting, unmyelinated C fibres convey gradual, scorching pain.
