Difference between Adequate stimulus and Sensory neuron

Adequate stimulus vs. Sensory neuron

The adequate stimulus is a property of a sensory receptor that determines the type of energy to which a sensory receptor responds with the initiation of sensory transduction. Sensory neurons also known as afferent neurons are neurons that convert a specific type of stimulus, via their receptors, into action potentials or graded potentials.

Similarities between Adequate stimulus and Sensory neuron

Adequate stimulus and Sensory neuron have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Hair cell, Light, Mechanoreceptor, Nociceptor, Olfaction, Photoreceptor cell, Sound, Stereocilia, Thermoreceptor, Transduction (physiology).

Hair cell

Hair cells are the sensory receptors of both the auditory system and the vestibular system in the ears of all vertebrates.

Light

Light is electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Mechanoreceptor

A mechanoreceptor is a sensory receptor that responds to mechanical pressure or distortion.

Nociceptor

A nociceptor is a sensory neuron that responds to damaging or potentially damaging stimuli by sending “possible threat” signals to the spinal cord and the brain.

Olfaction

Olfaction is a chemoreception that forms the sense of smell.

Photoreceptor cell

A photoreceptor cell is a specialized type of neuroepithelial cell found in the retina that is capable of visual phototransduction.

Sound

In physics, sound is a vibration that typically propagates as an audible wave of pressure, through a transmission medium such as a gas, liquid or solid.

Stereocilia

Stereocilia (or stereovilli) are non-motile apical modifications of the cell, which are distinct from cilia and microvilli, but closely related to the latter.

Thermoreceptor

A thermoreceptor is a non-specialised sense receptor, or more accurately the receptive portion of a sensory neuron, that codes absolute and relative changes in temperature, primarily within the innocuous range.

Transduction (physiology)

In physiology, sensory transduction is the conversion of a sensory stimulus from one form to another.

Adequate stimulus and Sensory neuron Comparison

Adequate stimulus has 19 relations, while Sensory neuron has 107. As they have in common 10, the Jaccard index is 7.94% = 10 / (19 + 107).
