Detailed explanation-1: -Mechanoreceptors. Mechanoreceptors detect stimuli such as touch, pressure, vibration, and sound from the external and internal environments. They contain primary sensory neurons that respond to changes in mechanical displacement, usually in a localized region at the tip of a sensory dendrite.
Detailed explanation-2: -Reception. The first step in sensation is reception., which is the activation of sensory receptors by stimuli such as mechanical stimuli (being bent or squished, for example), chemicals, or temperature. The receptor can then respond to the stimuli.
Detailed explanation-3: -Sensory neurons are activated by physical and chemical stimuli, eliciting sensations such as temperature, touch, pain, and itch.
