MUSCLE PHYSIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -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: -Hearing is a mechanical sense. It turns physical movement into the electrical signals that make up the language of the brain, translating these vibrations into what we experience as the world of sound. The diversity of sounds we can hear typically ranges from 20Hz (cycles/second) to 20, 000Hz.

Detailed explanation-3: -mechanical senses Senses that detect mechanical stimuli (e.g. touch, hearing (detecting air vibration), and balance).

Detailed explanation-4: -The general sense that is usually referred to as touch includes chemical sensation in the form of nociception, or pain. Pressure, vibration, muscle stretch, and the movement of hair by an external stimulus, are all sensed by mechanoreceptors. Hearing and balance are also sensed by mechanoreceptors.
