Choose the correct statement about receptors
Options
(a) Nociceptors respond to changes in pressure
(b) Meissner’s corpuscles are thermoreceptors
(c) photoreceptors in human eye are depolarized during darkness and become hyperpolarized in response to the light stimulus
(d) receptors do not produce graded potentials
Correct Answer:
photoreceptors in human eye are depolarized during darkness and become hyperpolarized in response to the light stimulus
Explanation:
Photoreceptors (Rod cells) in the human eye are depolarised during darkness and become hyperpolarised in response to the light stimulus.
