Question

Explain how skin works as a sense organ?

Answer 1

The skin contains general receptors. These receptors can detect touch, pain, pressure, and temperature. Throughout your skin, you have all four of these receptors interspersed. Skin receptors generate an impulse when activated, which is carried to the spinal cord and then to the brain.

The skin is not the only tissue in the body to have receptors, however. Your organs, which are made of tissues, also have receptors. Joints, ligaments, and tendons contain proprioceptors, which detect the position and movement of the limbs.

Answer 2

Skin is the largest organ of the human body which protects human body but it also acts as sense organ. Skin has receptors which detect touch, pain, cold and heat separately.
Skin has wide network of nerve cells which detect and forward to spinal cord and brain to any change in the environment. The receptors of heat, cold, pain and touch feel any change and create nerve impulse which forwards information to spinal cord and brain and then the react accordingly.
