13. Receptors
Skin Problems:
If a mole start changing in
size, color or shape, or if it
bleeds and doesn't heal on
its own in three weeks, it
should be evaluated by a
doctor to make sure it is
not turning into a skin
cancer.
MELANOMA
18. Receptors
Ear:
The eardrum flexes when sound
waves coming. The flexing is
transported and magnified by the
three tiny bones to the
round window of the cochlea.
20. Receptors
Ear: The cochlea is the sense organ that translates sound into
nerve impulses to be sent to the brain.
Hair cells are the sensory
receptors of the auditory
system

Ear: The cochlea is the sense organ that translates sound into
nerve impulses to be sent to the brain.
24. Receptors
EYES: Retina:
There are two types
of photoreceptors in
the human retina,
rods and cones.
The retina is a thin layer of
specialized cells located at
the back of your eye that
help to transmit
information provided by
light to our brain.
26. Receptores
EYES: Lens
Crystalline lens: is a transparent structure. It can change the
shape to change the focal distance of the eye so that it can focus
on objects at various distances.
28. Receptors
EYES: IRIS
The colored part of the eye
is called the iris. It controls
light levels inside the eye
similar to the aperture on a
camera. The round opening
in the center of the iris is
called the pupil
30. Receptores
EYES: Problems
The myopia eye is usually
longer than a normal eye,
and its cornea may also
be steeper. Therefore,
when light passes through
the cornea and lens, it is
focused in front of the
retina. This will make
distant images appear
blurred.
The Hypermetropia eye
is the oposite case.
34. Receptors
VISTA: Problems
Glaucoma:
Is characterized by a particular
pattern of progressive damage
to the optic nerve that generally
begins with a subtle loss of side
vision (peripheral vision).
Glaucoma is usually, but not
always, associated with elevated
pressure in the eye (intraocular
pressure). Generally, it is this
elevated eye pressure that leads
to damage of the eye (optic)
nerve.
