Stimuli is anything that gives a reverse effect in our body or our body responds to it - positively or negatively.Our nerves are the means of contact in our body. All nerves connect to the primary nerve also known as the spinal cord. Nerve endings are found in every surface corner of our skin and scalp. Any momentary feeling in any of these places are carried by the respective nerve - to the spinal cord - to the brain stem to the brain.

In the brain, there are many sectors , where different forms of stimuli are processed, mainly located in three primary divisions in the brain - cerebrum the back portion, cerebellum the top portion and medulla , the middle or the center.

All of this is done in a nanosecond, which tells you what you are dealing with or what you are feeling.

What are sensory receptors that send signals to the brain?

Sensory receptors are specialized cells that detect stimuli such as light, sound, temperature, or pressure. They convert these stimuli into electrical signals that are then sent to the brain for processing and interpretation. Examples include photoreceptors in the eyes for detecting light and mechanoreceptors in the skin for detecting touch.

Receptors provide information about the intensity of a stimulus through?

Receptors provide information about the intensity of a stimulus through the frequency of action potentials they generate. Higher intensity stimuli result in higher frequency of action potentials being sent to the brain, signaling a stronger stimulus. This frequency coding allows the brain to interpret the intensity of stimuli.
