one cold day, you bundle up in a sweater and a heavy coat. After a while, the weight of wearing your winter gear fades_____ sensors in your skin adapt to the heavy clothing?
A: pressure
B: pain

Respuesta :

A. Pressure.
The weight of the coat is not painful but it does apply a downward pressure. Over time, your body gradually adjusts to the added weight.

Answer:

A. Pressure

Explanation:

When suddenly exposed to a new stimuli, the senses become quickly aware and sensitive to it. However, after prolonged exposition to a stimuli, the senses become desensitized to it. It happens with any of the five senses, including tact, which is how we sense pressure. However, there is a sensitivity threshold, and when this is surpassed you would feel pain and the body would be much slower or even unable to adapt.
