<span>In response to harmful stimulus, nociceptors initiate neural impulses leading to sensation of pain. Nociceptors are receptors located at the end of a sensory neuron's axon. They respond to potentially damaging things by sending a signal to the spinal cord and brain that lets it know that there is a possible thread. If the brain believes the threat is real it will create a painful sensation at the body part in danger to alert the body and save itself from the threat.</span>

butalik [34]

Answer:

The following is the formula to determine the size from minor spaces and ocular spaces on the stage micrometer:  

Size = Number of minor spaces * 10 micrometer / Number of ocular spaces

A = Number of minor spaces is 2 and the number of ocular space is 1,

Size = 2 * 10 / 1 = 20 micro micrometer. Thus, the size of a bacterium is 20 micrometers.  

B = Thus, it can be said that the size of the bacterium is almost 4 times bigger in comparison to a human red blood cell, which is 6 micrometers in diameter.
