For this activity you will analyze three different popular diet programs. Do a web search to find out more about each of the diets. The Diet Program Evaluation Chart contains the questions you will answer. Print the chart and, in the open spaces of the chart, fill in notes on what you find. Your notes should be based on the principles of weight loss, balanced diet, and physical activity that you have learned about. After researching and note taking, type answers to numbers one to ten (from the chart) in your discussion entry. Be sure to number your answers. Finally, write a five to six sentence statement about which diet program you would choose if you were seeking to reduce your body weight and why.

Sensory adaptation of cutaneous temperature receptors some types of sensory receptors, like pain receptors, will continue to transduce pain until the stimulus is removed. other sensory receptors may respond with an initial burst in production of action potentials, but will “adapt” and over time action potentials will cease. sensory adaptation occurs, for example, with olfactory receptors for smell. procedure have the subject place one hand in an ice bath while simultaneously placing the other hand in a warm water bath (@40oc). the subject should keep their hands in the designated baths for two minutes. after two minutes, remove both hands and place both hands in a room temperature water bath. record your observations review questions 1. describe how each hand felt after taking them out of the designated water baths and placing them into the room temperature water bath. 2. define sensory adaptation and relate it to what happened to the temperature receptors in the subject’s hands. 3. list and describe sensory receptors that adapt, and sensory receptors that do not.
