Explanation:

Mechanoreceptors detect stimuli such as touch, pressure, vibration, and sound from the external and internal environments. They contain primary sensory neurons that respond to changes in mechanical displacement, usually in a localized region at the tip of a sensory dendrite.There are three classes of mechanoreceptors: tactile, proprioceptors, and baroreceptors.

Answer:

Mechanoreceptors- are a type of somatosensory receptors which relay extracellular stimulus to intracellular signal transduction through mechanically gated ion channels. The external stimuli are usually in the form of touch, pressure, stretching, sound waves, and motion

nocireceptors- are defined as neurons preferentially sensitive to a noxious stimulus, or to a stimulus which would become noxious if prolonged (definition of the International Association for the Study of Pain.

thermoreceptors- is a non-specialised sense receptor, or more accurately the receptive portion of a sensory neuron, that codes absolute and relative changes in temperature, primarily within the innocuous range.
