Afferent neurons have sensory receptors at their peripheral endings. Receptors as the term indicates receive information or we can say characteristics of a stimulus from the surroundings. The stimuli are of various types depending on the type of energy change for e.g. there can be either mechanical stimulus , chemical stimulus or thermal stimulus etc. Body has sensory receptors for detecting different types of energies. But once the receptors detect the stimulus, it has to be transmitted to the CNS as action potential, so receptors convert the stimulus energy into electrical signals. This is known as signal transduction.
Sensory Receptors can be classified in 3 ways
1. based on their location: exteroceptors, interoceptors and proprioceptors
2. based on modality of stimulus they detect: mechanoreceptors, chemoreceptors, thermoreceptors, nociceptors, and electromagnetic receptors .
3. Based on rate of adaptation: Slowly adapting receptors and fast adapting receptors
In skin , their are various mechanoreceptors. However, they are located in various layers of skin e.g. Merke;'s disks are located superficially in dermis and detect superficial texture of the object while Ruffini ending is deeper in dermis and detects pressure. Also there are Meissner’s corpuscle versus pacinian corpuscles. Both these receptors adapt very fast. Thus, they detect vibration sense. But, meissner’s corpuscle respond to slow vibration while pacinican corpuscle respond to fast vibration because pacinian corpuscle adapt very very fast. And pacinican corpuscles are located deep so they respond to deep pressure vibration while Meissner’s has to be superficial like a flutter on the skin. Also, meissner’s corpuscles detect the sensation from a small superficial area while Pacinian corpuscle respond to a stimulus even when it is present in a little larger area. This is known as receptive field of the receptor.
