Special Senses
Portland Community College
BI 232
Special Senses
• Sensory receptors are extensions of the
nervous system
• Contain specialized cells or processes that
relay specific information
• A receptor must convert the stimulus to an
action potential (transductions)
• The AP must be conducted from the
receptor to the CNS
2
General and Special senses
• General senses include
touch, pressure, vibration,
pain, temperature,
proprioception and
chemical and fluid
pressure.
• Special senses include
olfaction, gustation, vision
and hearing and
equilibrium
3
Olfaction
• Sensory receptors for
olfaction are located in
the olfactory
epithelium consists of:
• Olfactory receptor
cells
• Supporting cells
• Basal cells
4
Testing olfactory adaptation
• Adaptation refers to a
decreasing sensitivity
to a stimulus over
time.
• Sensitivity to an odor
diminishes over time.
• Do Activity 17.2
5
Gustation
• Sensory receptors for
gustation are located
in taste buds
• Located mainly on the
top of the tongue but
also in other areas of
mouth
• Innervated by cranial
nerves VII, IX and X
6
Lingual Papilla
• Papilla are epithelial projections on the
superior surface of the tongue
• Circumvallate papilla contain about 100
taste buds
• Fungiform papilla contain about 5 -10 taste
buds
• Filiform papillae provide friction that helps
the tongue move objects around in the
mouth, but do not contain taste buds
7
8
Taste Receptors
• Taste buds contain spindle-shaped cells
• Basal cells: produce daughter cells that
mature in stages
• Gustatory cells: extend microvilli into the
surrounding fluids through a taste pore
• Contain the taste receptors

Neural pathway for vision
• After optic nerves exit the
eyeballs they meet at the
optic chiasm.
• Fibers from medial half of
retina cross over to the
opposite side.
• Optic tracts project to the
lateral geniculate bodies
in thalamus
• Some fibers are relayed to
superior colliculi
19
Lacrimal Apparatus
• Consists of the
lacrimal gland and its
accessory structures.
• Produces water,
alkaline tears.
• Contain antibacterial
enzyme called
lysozyme for
protection from
bacterial infections
20
Extrinsic Eye Muscles
• Superior oblique: primarily rotates the top of
the eye toward the nose and secondarily moves
the eye downward
• Trochlea: Ligament sling
• Superior rectus: primarily moves the eye
upward and secondarily rotates the top of the
eye toward the nose
• Lateral rectus: moves the eye away from the
nose
21
Extrinsic Eye Muscles
• Medial rectus: moves the eye toward the
nose
• Inferior oblique: primarily rotates the top of
the eye away from the nose and secondarily
moves the eye upward
• Inferior rectus: primarily moves the eye
downward and secondarily rotates the top of
the eye away from the nose

Refraction
• Light is bent when it passes from one
medium to another medium with a different
density
• Light passes through these before it hits the
retina:
•
•
•
•
Cornea
Aqueous humor
Lens
Vitreous humor
25
Focal Point & Focal Distance
•
•
Focal Point: The specific point of
intersection on the retina.
Focal distance: The distance between the
center of the lens and its focal point.
Determined by two factors:
1. Distance from the object to the lens
2. Shape of the lens
26
Focal Distance
•
•
Distance from the object to the lens: the closer an
object is, the greater the focal distance
Shape of the lens: the rounder the lens, the more
refraction occurs, so it has a shorter focal distance
27
Accommodation
• Accommodation is an alteration in the curvature of
the lens of the eye to focus an image on the retina
• Near objects: Lens becomes rounder
• Distance objects: Lens becomes flatter
28
Accommodation
• Emmetropia is
normal vision.
• The image will be
focused on the
retina’s surface
29
Accommodation Problems
• Myopia: Nearsighted
• The eyeball is too deep or
the curvature of the lens is
too great
• The focal point is in front of
the retina, so distance
objects are blurry
• Corrected with a diverging
lens
30
Accommodation Problems
• Hyperopia: Farsighted
• The eyeball is too shallow or
the curvature of the lens is too
flat
• The focal point is behind of the
retina, so near objects are blurry
• Corrected with a converging
lens
31
Astigmatism
• The degree of curvature
in the cornea or lens
varies from one axis to
another (is uneven or wavy)
• This causes light to focus on more than one
area of the retina creating a blurry image.
32
Intrinsic Eye Muscles of the
Iris

Pupils constrict (Parasympathetic)


Close vision and bright light
Pupils dilate (Sympathetic)

Distant vision and dim light
33
Color Blindness
• Cones are responsible
for color vision.
• 3 types of cones each
able to absorb light at
specific wavelengths.
• Lack of one or more
types of cone can
cause color blindness
• Use Ishihara color
plates to test
34
Activities
• Dissect cow eye
• Perform visual tests

Neural pathways for hearing
• Vestibulocochlear
nerve (CN VIII) has 2
divisions:
• Vestibular divisionsend impulses to
medulla where fibers
are crossed and
uncrossed to travel to
the cerebellum; to the
cortex
45
Neural pathways for hearing
• The cochlear division
receive impulses to the
cochlear nuclei in the
medulla.
• Some fibers cross over to
other side.
• Some remain on the same
side.
• Both synapse in the
inferior colliculi
46
Types of Hearing Loss
• Conductive hearing loss occurs when sound is not
conducted efficiently through the outer ear canal
to the eardrum and the bones of the middle ear.
• Sensorineural hearing loss occurs when there is
damage to the inner ear (cochlea) or to the nerve
pathways from the inner ear to the brain.
47
Weber & Rinne Tests
• Weber test: determines if hearing loss is
present in one ear, but does not distinguish
conductive and sensorineural deafness
• Rinne test : Evaluates an individual’s ability
to hear sounds conducted by air or bone
• Used together, these test can distinguish
between the two types of hearing loss
48
Weber Test
• Ring tuning fork and place on
center of head. Ask the subject
where they hear the sound.
• Interpreting the test:
• Normally, the sound is heard in the
center of the head or equally in
both ears.
• Sound localizes toward the poor ear
with a conductive loss
• Sound localizes toward the good
ear with a sensorineural hearing
loss
49
Rinne Test
• Place the vibrating tuning fork on
the base of the mastoid bone.
• Ask patient to tell you when the
sound is no longer heard.
• Immediately move the tuning fork
to the front of the ear
• Ask the patient to tell you when
the sound is no longer heard.
• Repeat the process putting the
tuning fork in front of the ear first
50
Rinne Test
• Normally, someone will hear the
vibration in the air (in front of the ear)
after they stop hearing it on the bone
• Conductive hearing loss: If the person
hears the vibration on the bone after
they no longer hear it in the air.
• Do Activity 17.8
