Emotional Receivers


Emotions: To understand what are the emotional receptors, we must first know that they are, exactly, emotions. She has done various investigations and experiments related to the mechanism through which a class of chemists alter the mind and body that led to the conclusion that emotions work as regulatory systems of our body, thus passing on formulate a theory of emotions. Each and every one of us are emotional receptors and emitters, since our emotions are transformed into signs of our emotional state for others. That's why only by paying attention to others we can try to find out what they are feeling, because of their facial expressions - the way they take their mouths, eyes or eyebrows - or, for corporal expressions - shrug their shoulders or the position of the hands -. Emotions are very important; Being able to know how others feel, how we feel and convey it, is the basis of our sociability. Receptors: The emotions happen by a mechanism of our body of stimulus and response. A stimulus is a factor that can be internal or external and that affects, in some way, the different organisms creating a change in it. In the case of external ones, the changes usually are physical, chemical or mechanical. These changes are the ones that can call the receptors, that is, activate them so that they transmit the perception of our nervous system in the form of information that ends up being an answer to the initial stimulus.      There are very varied stimuli, but they are all specific, since each stimulus can only be collected by a single and specific organ - the receptor -, or have a sufficient intensity to stimulate receptor organs, and once stimulated or captured, To be able to transform itself into information for us or other living beings.      In the image below, you can see how the stimuli and their responses work with two different examples: An endocrine cell and a nervous one.      In our case, that of emotions, would be a set of these two stimuli. For the part of the internal sensations, our body would use the endocrine cells; In the case of the external ones, the process would be neuronal, that is to say, that the endocrine cells would work.

Francesco's plants Day 1

Strong music, Insults Low music, compliments Indiference

Our plants: Menta Spicata and Primerose

For our experiment we are going to take care of two different plants: Green Mint and Primerose, so we had to search for information about them. Menta Spicata: First of all, we are going to explain green mint, who is knowing by the name of menta spicata  - it's the botanic name - too. It is a plant inside the mentha's gender, that is an aromatic plant thankful to it intense and cool smell and it is so used in gastronomy and perfumery. Green Mint is a parenne plant, it means that live more than 2 years, so in good conditions, it grows up easily to 1 meter high thanks to its extensive and invasive roots. Its leaves give the name to the plant for its form (spica means 'spear' in Latin). The leaves have a big foliar mass so, especially in summer, they need to be watered with a higher frequency.

Method

To prove our experiment, every day we have to take care of our plants: We take the plants that listen to stronger music at the same time as the plants that receive the insults and put on their' music while we insult the other two. Then, we do the same with the ones that listen to softer music and the ones that receive compliments. Then, we take a picture to track the plant's growth.
