Some sensory pathways subserve protective reflexes, such as the gag reflex.
Transmembrane receptors are integral components of sensory pathways in prokaryotes.
These fibres constitute the sensory pathways in the spinal nerves.
Frangeul, L. et al. A cross-modal genetic framework for the development and plasticity of sensory pathways.
According to one, there is increased connectivity between normally distinct sensory pathways, because of greater neuronal outgrowth during brain development, or because exuberant connections were not properly "pruned".
Music helps reduce pain by activating sensory pathways that compete with pain pathways, stimulating emotional responses, and engaging cognitive attention.
Electrical recording methods will be used to explore principles of excitability, synaptic transmission, sensory pathways and neural integration.
Timing-based mechanisms may underlie the assembly of the other sensory pathways and complex neural circuitry in the brain.
Jones, E. G. & Powell, T. P. S. An anatomical study of converging sensory pathways within the cerebral cortex of the monkey.
It is also possible that habituation of the relevant sensory pathways during chill coma diminished the sensation of the noxious stimulus when the bees recovered.
All had synaesthesia, a harmless neurological condition in which activity in one sensory modality, such as vision or hearing, evokes automatic and involuntary perceptual experiences in another, due to increased cross-talk between the sensory pathways in the brain.
