Answer:

the number of oxytocin receptors on the cell surface  

Explanation:

The increase of the number of hormone receptors present on the surface of target cells increases the sensitivity of such cells to the hormone. Oxytocin is a neuropeptide hormone produced by the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary gland. This hormone acts as a neurotransmitter that binds to oxytocin receptors in order to trigger a molecular cascade that finalizes with the activation of the enzyme Phospholipase-C. Oxytocin receptors are found in different types of brain cells including, for example, the amygdala and hippocampus (where oxytocin binds). This hormone acts as a chemical messenger that modulates brain functions associated with the reproductive system (i.e., childbirth and lactation) and human behavior.

Which of these statements about the human sense of touch is NOT true?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The correct answer is There are very few receptors on the soles of a person's feet.

Explanation:

The skin is made up of a layer called the epidermis. The epidermis contains cells that are very sensitive and are responsible for perceiving everything we touch by sending this information to the brain.

All the nerve endings that our body has are in charge of controlling the sense of touch.

All the sensations that we perceive when touching something with any part of the body are linked to the sense of touch.

The most sensitive places on our body are palms, lips, tongue, soles of the feet, fingertips, eyelids and face.

Therefore the correct answer is There are very few receptors on the soles of a person's feet.
