And you would be right in just about every instance. But for veterans with service-connected disability ratings, the math doesnât always work out quite so easily. In fact, 30 + 20 might only equal 44, which rounds down to 40. Or it might equal 48.4, which rounds up to 50.
Exteroceptors are the afferent nerve endings that sense stimuli originating from outside of the body, such as pain, touch, vibration, temperature, and sound. One type of exteroceptors are known as mechanoreceptors, which are receptors that respond to external mechanical stimuli such as touch, pressure, and vibration.
A nerve is an enclosed, cable-like bundle of axons (nerve fibers, the long and slender projections of neurons) in the peripheral nervous system. A nerve provides a common pathway for the electrochemical nerve impulses that are transmitted along each of the axons to peripheral organs.
