Tonic receptors have little to no adaptation while phasic receptors adapt fast!
Thermoregulation receptors are sensory receptors in the skin and deep tissues that detect changes in body temperature. They send signals to the brain to help regulate the body's temperature by adjusting factors such as blood flow, sweating, and shivering to maintain homeostasis. Temperature receptors can be sensitive to both cold and warm stimuli.
There are only heat receptors. "Cold" is a low level of heat.
Tonic receptors are the slowest adapting receptors. They respond continuously to a stimulus over a prolonged period of time without adapting or decreasing their firing rate significantly. Examples include muscle spindle receptors and joint proprioceptors.
The three skin senses are touch, temperature, and pain. Touch receptors detect pressure, vibration, and texture, while temperature receptors detect hot and cold sensations. Pain receptors, called nociceptors, respond to tissue damage or injury.
The body contains temperature receptors which monitor external temperature in order to regulate body temperature. These special temperature receptors are located in the skin.
Pressure receptors are called mechanoreceptors, pain receptors are called nociceptors, and temperature receptors are called thermoreceptors.
Temperature receptors in the human body are located in the skin, especially in the dermis and epidermis layers. These receptors help to detect changes in temperature and send signals to the brain to regulate body temperature. Temperature receptors are also present in internal organs to help maintain internal temperature balance.
The two types of temperature senses are warm receptors and cold receptors. Warm receptors detect increases in temperature, while cold receptors detect decreases in temperature. Together, they help our bodies maintain a stable internal temperature.

Thermoreceptors
Thermoreceptors are the specialized receptors that detect changes in temperature in the body. These receptors are found in the skin, hypothalamus, and other areas to help regulate body temperature and respond to external temperature changes.
