The Mechanical Senses: Vestibular and Somatosensation
... SOMATOSENSATION: sensation of the body/skin Sensory Neuron (or “Sensory Receptor”) Types 1) Tactile: response to being touched (“light” and “deep” touch) Ruffini ending, Meissner’s corpuscle, Pacinian corpuscle The axons from these receptors are myelinated! 2) Pain: response to noxious stimulus 3) ...
