The sensation of temperature is signaled mainly by warm and cold receptors whose sensory fibers travel in association with the sensory fibers carrying pain signals. Which of the following statements best characterizes the transmission of signals from warm receptors?

#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal
  1. Warm receptors are well characterized histologically
  2. Signals from warm receptors are mainly transmitted along slow-conducting type C sensory fibers
  3. Warm receptors are located well below the surface of the skin in the subcutaneous connective tissue
  4. There are 3 to 10 times more warm receptors than cold receptors in most areas of the body
