Alicia often travels from the very hot climate of South Africa to her native North America. Which sensory receptor helps her adjust to the change in the temperature of her surroundings?



Photoreceptors



Mechanoreceptors



Thermoreceptors

Respuesta :

thermoreceptors, as they're nerve cells that have the abilty to detect difference in temperature

Answer:

Thermoreceptors

Explanation:

Thermoreceptors are the sensory receptors that are sensitive to changes in the temperature of surroundings. Thermoreceptors are one of the cutaneous receptors and are present in the dermis layer of skin.

The thermoreceptors present in Alicia' skin would sense the change in the temperature. This sensory information will be sent to the brain to produce the required responses to adjust to the surrounding temperatures.
