                     Special Sensory Division

1. Regarding the eye

            a) know the location and protection

            b) know 4 external accessory structures of the eye : name, structure, function

            c) Name the three eyeball tunics, their subdivisions and function

            d) Name the inner chambers of the eye and their fluids and subdivisions.

            e) Be able to describe the detail of the retina

            f) know the structure and function of the lens

            g) know the optics of the eye and define related terms : light, vision, reflection,

                 refraction, accommodation, converging and diverging light rays, real image

            h) Follow the visual pathway from the retina to the appropriate brain lobe

            i) know the Cranial nerves that involve the eye and reflex tests used

            j) Name 2 aging changes and 2 conditions / diseases of the eye.

            k) Name two (2) conditions/ diseases of the accessory structures of the eye.

2. Regarding the ear

        a) Name the 3 anatomical regions of the ear, their parts and function

b) Explain the physiological mechanisms of hearing: structures, function, & cranial nerve

        c) Define related terms : decibel, pitch, sound

d) Give two types of equilibrium and the physiological mechanism of balance listing the structures, function, and cranial nerve

        e) Follow the pathway from CN VIII to the appropriate brain lobe

         f) Name 2 aging changes and 2 conditions / diseases of the ear

3. Regarding the chemical senses : (gustatory = taste) & (olfaction = smell)

a) Name the location, gross & histological anatomy of the taste receptors

            b) Name the cranial nerves involved with taste and the 4 basic taste sensations

            c) Name the location, gross & histological anatomy of the olfactory receptors

            d) Name the cranial nerve involved with olfaction and the pathway to the brain

            e) Name 1 aging change and 1 condition / disease of taste.

            f) Name 1 aging change and 1 condition / disease of smell.

4. Discuss developmental changes of the special senses

5. Explain how the sensory system works with other body systems.

6. Define : sensation, adaptation, projection, accommodation as related to all senses

7. Regarding the somatic sensory :

            Review the skin anatomy & somatic sensory receptors :

Pain, temperature, touch, pressure

            Review the autonomic nervous system for visceral sensory : pain

            Review the muscle and joints for sensory : proprioception

            Define referred pain and phantom pain
