Mechanosensory refers to the detection of mechanical stimuli by sensory receptors. These stimuli can include pressure, touch, vibration, stretch, and changes in position or movement. Mechanosensory systems are found in a wide variety of organisms, from simple invertebrates to complex vertebrates, and play crucial roles in survival, navigation, and interaction with the environment.
In humans, mechanosensory receptors are located throughout the body, primarily in the skin, muscles, joints, and
The signals generated by mechanosensory receptors are transmitted as nerve impulses to the central nervous system,
