the nerve endings that detect pressure on your skin are called what
dendrites
One is that they must have somewhat muscular walls to handle the Pressure. Another is that they have specialized nerve sensors [endings] that detect (and respond to) pressure.
yes
no, only the dermis is propogated with nerve endings
Mechanoreceptors
There are four nerve endings in the skin namely: Pacinian nerve endings for pain Krause nerve endings for cold Ruffinis nerve endings for Heat and warm Endorphins-- natural pain killers SAM MKT :)

Tactile corpuscle are the nerve endings in the skin that respond to the lightest touch. They are most concentrated on the fingertips and lips.
Proprioceptors
The dolphin forcefully exhales water when surfacing for air to clear the recessed blowhole area of water. There is a network of complex nerve endings located in the region of the blowhole. These nerve endings sense pressure changes so the animal knows when its blowhole is clear of the water and it is safe to breathe.
All animals have nerve endings.
The type of nerve that detects pain is a naked nerve fiber. Other fibers that detect pressure, taste, etc have special endings.
dendrites
receptors
Rubbing the carotid sinus stimulates an area in the artery wall that contains nerve endings. These nerves respond to changes in blood pressure and are capable of slowing the heart rate.
The researchers think that the higher the pulse pressure, the stiffer the blood vessels. The stiffer the blood vessel, the less likely the nerve endings are working properly. If the nerve endings aren't functioning correctly, the less likely a person will feel pain.
