Which of the following statements about sensory receptors is FALSE? Metabotropic receptors induce signaling cascades by activating enzymes. Photoreceptors are examples of primary sensory cells. Ionotropic receptors respond more quickly to stimuli than metabotropic receptors. The sensory receptors for olfaction are located on the cilia. All the statements are true; none are false.
