The series of events v thermoception in which a sensory temperature stimulus is received by a cell and converted into a molecular signal. The series of events in which a sensory temperature stimulus is received by a cell and converted into a molecular signal. The series of events involved in sensory perception in which a sensory stimulus is received by a cell and converted into a molecular signal. The series of events required for an organism to receive a temperature stimulus, convert it to a molecular signal, and recognize and characterize the signal. Thermoception in larger animals is mainly done in the skin; mammals have at least two types of sensor, for detecting heat (temperatures above body temperature) and cold (temperatures below body temperature). The series of events in which a temperature stimulus (hot or cold) is received and converted into a molecular signal. The series of events required for an organism to receive a sensory temperature stimulus, convert it to a molecular signal, and recognize and characterize the signal. This is a neurological process.
