The taste and touch sensation
When you touch an ice cube, heat is transferred from your skin to the ice cube. This heat transfer lowers the temperature of your skin, triggering nerve endings that sense cold temperature. This sensation of cold is a signal sent to your brain that tells you the ice cube is colder than your skin.
The skin contains nerves called mechanoreceptors that respond to touch by detecting pressure, vibration, and stretching. These receptors send signals to the brain to provide information about the type, location, and intensity of the touch sensation.
