PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Somatosensory System: The Ability To Sense Touch. Our sense of touch is controlled by a huge network of nerve endings and touch receptors in the skin known as the somatosensory system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Tactile corpuscles also called Meissner’s corpuscles are a type of mechanoreceptor that responds to touch. These are found in skin areas of lips, fingers, and more. Hence, this is the correct option.

Detailed explanation-3: -Touch responses involve a very precise coding of mechanical information. Cutaneous mechanoreceptors are localized in the various layers of the skin where they detect a wide range of mechanical stimuli, including light brush, stretch, vibration, deflection of hair and noxious pressure.

Detailed explanation-4: -Human skin contains multiple receptors, and is able to sense various stimuli such as temperature, pressure, force, corrosion etc, and to feel pains and the shape of objects.
