7. Urinary tract infections-A UTI or urinary tract infection can affect any part of the urinary tract. Germs inside the urinary system can cause fever, pain, cramping, cloudy urine, and feeling the need to urinate, even when the bladder is empty.
The sensory receptors involved in taste and smell contain receptor molecules that bind to specific chemicals.Odor receptors in olfactory receptor neurons, for example, are activated by interacting with molecular structures on the odor molecule.Similarly, taste receptors (gustatory receptors) in taste buds interact with chemicals in food to produce an action potential.dor receptors in olfactory receptor neurons, for example, are activated by interacting with molecular structures on the odor molecule.

1. A nerve ending specialized to sense or receive stimuli. Skin receptors respond to stimuli such as touch and pressure and signal the brain by activating portions of the nervous system. Receptors in the nose detect odors.2. nerve ending specialized to sense or receive stimuli.
