One day, you accidentally touch a hot stove given your knowledge about how information is processed in the body, which of the following is the best description of how you might perceive “pain? ”

a. information about “heat” would be collected and processed by the central nervous system.

b. information about “heat” would be collected and by the peripheral nervous system.

c. information about “heat” would be collected by the central nervous system and transmitted to the peripheral nervous system. the peripheral nervous system would then interpret that information and send a response back to the central nervous system.

d. information about “heat” would be collected through your fingertips and transmitted by the peripheral nervous system to the parietal lobe of the central nervous system. the central nervous system would then interpret that information and send a response back to the peripheral nervous system

The correct answer is D. Information about “heat” would be collected through your fingertips and transmitted by the peripheral nervous system to the parietal lobe of the central nervous system. The central nervous system would then interpret that information and send a response back to the peripheral nervous system

Explanation:

The nervous system is divided into two main sub-systems the central system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral system (nerves in all the body). In this way, information is first collected in the peripheral system through the nerves located in a specific part of the body, then this information is transferred to specific parts of the brain where it is processed and finally, a response is sent to the peripheral nervous system.

This implies in the case presented, heat is perceived by the fingerprint, then collected by the nerves in fingers, after this, the information is sent to the brain and more specifically to the parietal lobe that processes sensory information; and finally, a response is sent back which makes you move your finger to avoid heat.

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate     (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.
