We can touch our finger to our nose while our eyes are closed in part because we can sense the position and movement of our joints as well as the length of stretch in our muscles. These sensations create awareness of our body's positioning. The following receptors are most likely responsible for this ability. a. nociceptors b. exteroceptors c. interoceptors d. proprioceptors e. tactile discs

Propioceptors

Explanation:

Receptors usually respond to its corresponding stimuli. The stimuli can be inside the body or outside the body.

Exteroceptors is a type of receptor that senses stimuli originating from outside the body. This may include touch, vibration or sound.

However, Propioceptors are responsible for sensing muscle movement and change in position.

Therefore it gives us the ability to touch our fingers to our nose while the eyes are closed because we can sense the position and movement of our joint as well as the stretch in our muscles. These creates awareness of our body positioning.

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
