The Sensory Organs



Sensory organs include the receptors and
accessory organs. The receptors may be divided
into three kinds:
The exteroceptors 外感受器: receive stimuli such as
touch, temperature, pain, light and sound from the
external environment
The interoceptors 内感受器: pick up information
about internal environment
The proprioceptors 本体感受器: receive stimuli from
muscles, tendons, joints and ligaments
The Visual Organ 视器
Composition: eyeball and
accessory organs of eye
Shape of eyeball
 Has anterior and posterior
poles
 Equator 赤道: an imaginary
line encircling the eyeball,
midway between anterior
and posterior poles
 Axis of eyeball 眼轴: a line
joining the two poles
 Optic axis 视轴: a line
joining the center of the
pupil to the fovea centralis
