Summary Introduction
To determine:
The presence of sensory pits on both sides of pit viper’s head.
Introduction:
Nociceptors and thermoreceptors both are sensory neurons. Thermoreceptors react to cold or hot temperatures by activating or inhibiting the enzymes within their plasma membranes, which alter the membrane channels. Whereas, Nociceptors are neurons in the skin and internal organs. They respond to tissue damage or to stimuli that are about to cause tissue damage.
