What is the function of receptors in the body? Think of situations where receptors do not work properly and what are the problems likely to arise?
Answers
receptors grasp the stimuli and send it to the CNS for response
if it would be absent in body then the hody couldn't hav the capacity of grasping stimuli and thus some unfortunate things (like death) may occur for the organism

Explanation:
Functions of receptors:
→ They sense the external stimuli such as heat or pain.
→ They also trigger an impulse in the sensory neuron which sends message to the spinal cord.
When the receptors are damaged, the external stimuli transferring signals to the brain are not felt. For example, in the case of damaged receptors, if we accidentally touch any hot object, then our hands might get burnt as damaged receptors cannot perceive the external stimuli of heat and pain.
