Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nociception is classified as polymodal because it responds to multiple types of stimuli such as thermal, mechanical, and chemical. Chronic pain refers to pain that persists for a long time, polymorphic is not a classification of pain, and intermodal refers to the integration of sensory information from different modalities which is not specific to pain. Acute pain is a type of pain that has a sudden onset and is usually caused by injury or inflammation.
