Sensory receptors transmit four kinds of information: modality, location, intensity, and duration. Read each example of sensory information and drag it to the appropriate category it exemplifies. Only the most sensitive receptors are stimulated by weak stimuli
Concentration of Volume of sound
Tonic receptors
Labeled line coding receptors in a given area of skin
Firing frequency of sensory nerve fibers
Changes in the firing frequency of sensory nerve impulses over time
The brain assumes that if a signal comes from the olfactory epithelium, it must be for smell
