Muscle spindles and golgi tendon organs. im not sure if there are more but those are the ones i know of
Proprioceptors are sensory receptors located in muscles, tendons, and joints that provide information about body position and movement to the brain. They are important for controlling balance, coordination, and proprioception (the ability to sense the position of body parts without visual input).
They tell the body where it is and how it is positioned.
Proprioceptors do not belong in the grouping, as they are sensory receptors responsible for detecting body position and movement, while rods, cones, and photoreceptors are sensory receptors responsible for detecting light and color in the eyes.
Proprioceptors are sensors that provide information about joint angle, muscle length, and muscle tension, which is integrated to give information about the position of the limb in space.
The main job of proprioceptors is to recieve stimulus about body position, posture, and movement. In other words, they are the things that tells the brain where the body is and what it is doing.
Proprioceptors are specialized sensory receptors that provide information about body position and movement, typically found in muscles, tendons, and joints. The olfactory epithelium, responsible for the sense of smell, primarily contains olfactory receptors that detect odor molecules. It does not contain proprioceptors, as its function is to transduce chemical signals rather than provide feedback on body position. Therefore, proprioceptors are not present in the olfactory epithelium.

Proprioceptors are sensory nerve ending in muscles, tendons, and joints which respond to variations in movement, position, and tension. Muscle spindles proprioceptors sense changes in muscle length, Pacinian corpuscles are proprioceptor which detect changes in movement and pressure within the body, and the Golgi tendon organs, proprioceptors in the tendons near the end of muscle fibers, are sensitive to changes in muscle tension.
Proprioceptors are classified by their location within the body and their function in providing feedback about body position, movement, and balance. They can be further categorized as muscle spindles, golgi tendon organs, and joint receptors.
