Meissner's corpuscles; pain and touch receptors, Pacinian corpuscles; pressure receptors, hair follicle receptors; light touch receptors, Rufini's corpuscles; respond to deep pressurethat recieve the stimulus
touch receptors are connected to hair on the skin, so if a hair gets touched, you feel it
Sensory cutaneous innervation refers to the nerve receptors in the skin. There are many nerve receptors that measure things like touch, pressure, vibration, and temperature in the skin. The most notable of these are the Merkle disks, Meissner corpusles, Pacianian corpusles, and the Ruffi end organs. Then there are also hair follicle receptors and Krause end bulbs. They all form a network that is sometimes referred to as a dermatome, which is an area of the skin that is innervated by a single nerve root on the spinal cord.
It is the Vestibular System, a series of fluid filled tubes in the inner ear that connect with each other and the cochlear duct containing hair cells that detect changes in motion.

You have several sensory receptors and they all measure differences in pressure, displacement, and movement. The main ones are the Merkle, Meissner, Pacinian, Raffini, Krause, Hair follicle receptors, and the pain receptors.

The inner ear is made up of multiple parts to amplify sound and to determine sound frequencies. The Cochlea is a spiral shaped portion of the inner ear which contains tiny "hair cells" which are the actual sensory receptors. Repeated loud noises can actually damage or destroy these hair cells causing permanent hearing loss.The ear also is used for balance, using a portion of the ear called the vestibule or vestibular system. This also has hair cells for sensory receptors that are triggered by motion.
Sensory receptors gather information that is further processed by your brain. They tell your brain when it is getting cold, warm, wet, dry etc. Sensory receptors also tell your body when you are in danger. If you cut yourself, burn yourself, any damage to the body, and they will respond accordingly to prevent further damage.
Sensory receptors in the dermis include: free nerve endings, pacinian corpuscles, and hair follicle receptors The mechanoreceptors of the skin are the meissner's corpuscles (which respond to light touch), the pacinian corpuscles (deeper in the dermis and respond to pressure), and the merkel's disks (closely related to the merkel's cells located in the epidermis and respond to light touch). The nociceptors are pain receptors that recognize hot, cold, and pain.
smooth mucles? blood vessels? sensory nerve endings? hair follicles? all of the above?
The sensory nerve endings are specialized neurones that are stimulated to fire action potntiels based on chemical factors, photons, heat etc depending on their location and type.
Yes. Research shows that cocaine can be detected in hair folicles for up to 3 months after last use.
