Detailed explanation-1: -The somatosensory systems process information about, and represent, several modalities of somatic sensation (i.e., pain, temperature, touch, proprioception).
Detailed explanation-2: -The sensory cortex is an area of the brain that processes information about touch and other senses.

Detailed explanation-4: -Somatosensory cortex These areas receive information about temperature, taste, touch, and movement from the rest of the body.
Detailed explanation-5: -The somatic sensory cortex in humans, which is located in the parietal lobe, comprises four distinct regions, or fields, known as Brodmann’s areas 3a, 3b, 1, and 2. Although area 3b is generally known as the primary somatic sensory cortex (also called SI), all four areas are involved in processing tactile information.
