Match the stimuli to the sensory receptors that respond to them.



the smell of freshly baked cookies

a person whispering

a rainbow outside a window

stinky garbage

night vision

a loud bang

shapes in a room after the lights are turned off



Stuff To match them with:



Rods:

Cones:

Auditory Receptors:

Olfactor Receptors:

Answer 1

1. the smell of freshly baked cookies- Olfactory Receptors

2. a person whispering- Auditory Receptors

3. a rainbow outside a window- Cones

4. stinky garbage- Olfactory Receptors

5. night vision- Rods

6. A loud band- Auditory receptors

7. shapes in a room after the lights are turned off- Rods

Step-by-step explanation:

Olfactory receptors can be described as the receptors which detect smell. They comprise of proteins that bind to the odour molecules and hence generate smell. Son the smell of freshly baked cookies as well as stinky garbage will be due to olfactory receptors.

Auditory receptors can be described as receptors which are involved in hearing. Hence, the sound of a person whispering and a loud band will be heard due to auditory receptors.

Rods can be described as photoreceptors that are involved in night vision.

Cones are photoreceptors that are involved in generating coloured images.
