Great videos. I'll watch all on the nervous system. THANK YOU!!
Thank you as this been very helpful in my current studies doctor
This is very helpful for my studies of the somatosensory receptors! Thank you!
bless ur soul
Etymology late Middle English (in the sense ‘give out light or sound as if by vibration’): from Latin vibrat- ‘moved to and fro’, from the verb vibrare . Middle English: the verb from Old French tochier, probably from a Romance word of imitative origin; the noun originally from Old French touche, later (in certain senses) directly from the verb. Middle English (in the sense ‘suffering inflicted as punishment for an offence’): from Old French peine, from Latin poena ‘penalty’, later ‘pain’. ate Middle English: from Old French, from Latin positio(n- ), from ponere ‘to place’. The current sense of the verb dates from the early 19th century. Origin. Early 20th century coined in German from Latin receptor, from recept- 'taken back', from the verb recipere (see receive). rom Greek mēkhanē ‘machine’. late Middle English: from French température or Latin temperatura, from temperare ‘restrain’. The word originally denoted the state of being tempered or mixed, later becoming synonymous with temperament. The modern sense dates from the late 17th century. Word origin: somato- from soma (body) + sensation. early 17th century: from medieval Latin sensatio(n- ), from Latin sensus (see sense) late Middle English (as a noun in the sense ‘meaning’): from Latin sensus ‘faculty of feeling, thought, meaning’, from sentire ‘feel’. The verb dates from the mid 16th century.
At the beginning of the video, you say axons a few times in reference to the various receptors encapsulated structures. I am pretty sure you meant to say dendrites. Minor, but given this is an educational video about the anatomy of this system, probably relevant.

They're basically the nerve terminals, but you're right

Yes
Maybe it's because this video is about 3 years old now, but nocrceptors are found to detect both pain and temperature!

temperature is a stimuli that leads to pain u gypsy

You are retarded?
Is it just me or does it not seem logical that thermoreceptors and nociceptors would have smaller axon diameters and thin myelin sheaths/unmyelinated....surely, considering what those receptors detect, if would be better if the action potential travelled faster.

You have it backwards. Myelination makes conduction faster, as does larger diameter.

I am aware of that - which is why I'm asking that question ^ in the first place?

It is my understanding that nocireceptors and thermoreceptors have thinner myelin coatings on axons as well as free nerve endings in order to increase sensitivity to mechanical stimuli. Although you are correct in that speed of synapse is sacrificed.

I forgot to add that sensitivity to warmth is increased for thermoreceptors in addition to sensitivity to mechanical stimuli for nocireceptors. Due to the less myelinated axons.

+xHaniffax I was thinking the same thing--especially considering the withdrawal reflex and the rapid signal of pain to the CNS.

Your monotone voice and enthusiasm makes this boring subject even more unbearable. Please get someone else to do these videos with more enthusiasm.
