Your nervous system
The layer of the stomach that contains nerve endings is the submucosa. This layer lies beneath the mucosa and contains a network of nerve fibers known as the submucosal plexus, which is part of the enteric nervous system. These nerve endings are crucial for regulating digestive processes, including the secretion of gastric juices and motility. Additionally, the muscularis layer also has nerve endings, particularly in the myenteric plexus, which coordinates muscle contractions.
The nervous system.
A human testicle contains approximately 10,000 to 15,000 nerve endings. These nerve endings are involved in various functions, including sensation and regulating blood flow. The high density of nerve endings contributes to the sensitivity of the testicles, making them responsive to touch and temperature changes.

The epidermis does not but the lower layers of the dermis do.
The back of the hand contains approximately 1,500 to 2,000 nerve endings per square inch. These nerve endings are responsible for sensing touch, temperature, and pain, contributing to the hand's sensitivity. The density of nerve endings varies across different areas of the body, with the fingertips having a higher concentration than the back of the hand.
The gluteus maximus contains a significant number of nerve endings, primarily from the inferior gluteal nerve, which innervates the muscle. While the exact number of nerve endings specifically in the gluteus maximus is not well-documented, it is known that this muscle has a rich supply of sensory and motor nerve fibers, contributing to its function in movement and stability of the hip. Overall, the gluteal region has a high density of nerve endings, facilitating sensory feedback and motor control.
The sebaceous glands are controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, which signals the release of sebum through nerve endings connected to the glands. These nerve endings respond to various stimuli, such as hormones, stress, and temperature changes, to regulate sebum production.
All animals have nerve endings.
No, the brain itself does not have nerve endings. Nerve endings are found in other parts of the body, such as the skin, that send signals to the brain.
No, the brain itself does not have nerve endings. Nerve endings are found in other parts of the body, such as the skin and organs, but not in the brain itself.
Nerve endings cannot be killed as they are a part of the body's nervous system. However, in certain medical procedures, nerve endings can be damaged or destroyed to reduce pain or sensation in a specific area. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional before undergoing any such procedure.
