| # | Definition | Sets | |
| 1 | nerve receptors that respond to pressure and vibration | 2 sets | |
| 2 | pressure receptor | 2 sets | |
| 3 | are sensitive to pressure located in hypodermis and dermis. | 2 sets | |
| 4 | lameilated corpuscle; sense heavy pressure | 1 set | |
| 5 | capable of detecting deep pressure | 1 set | |
| 6 | receptors in skin that sense pressure | 1 set | |
| 7 | nerve ending for tickle (deep, dynamic) | 1 set | |
| 8 | encapsulated nerve ending, deep touch, pressure and vibration | 1 set | |
| 9 | superficial, fast, tickle | 1 set | |
| 10 | relates to pressure | 1 set | |
| 11 | a specialzed somatosensory nerve ending that detects mechanical stimuli especially vibrations | 1 set | |
| 12 | -detection of vibration | 1 set | |
| 13 | a specialized encapsulated (naked) somatosensory nerve ending, which detects mechanical stimuli, especially vibrations | 1 set | |
| 14 | in subcutaneous tissue & both hairy & glaborous skin; rapidly adapting receptors | 1 set | |
| 15 | resembles a cut onion | 1 set | |
| 16 | deep pressure sensory receptor of the skin | 1 set | |
| 17 | a specialized somatosensory nerve ending, which detects mechanical stimuli, especialy vibrations | 1 set | |
| 18 | a specialized somatosensory nerve ending, which detects mechanical stimuli, especially vibrations | 1 set | |
| 19 | most complicated nerve ending, sensitive to pressure and vibration | 1 set | |
| 20 | nerve receptors that respond to pressure and vibrations; they are oval capsules of sensory nerve fibers located in the subcutaneous fatty tissue | 1 set | |
| 21 | makes the skin capable of detecting pressure | 1 set | |
| 22 | skin receptor cell that detects vibration | 1 set | |
| 23 | a receptor with a distinctive elliptical shape associated with ra2 mechanoreceptors. it transmits pressure to the nerve fiber inside it only at the beginning or end of a pressure stimulus, and is responsible for our perception of vibration and fine textures that are perceived when moving the fingers over a surface. | 1 set | |
| 24 | senses deep pressure; phasic receptor with adaptation, graded potentils-action potential at first node of ranvier | 1 set | |
| 25 | round coil bottom of dermis | 1 set | |
| 26 | a receptor that detects vibration, fast-adapting | 1 set | |
| 27 | below reticular layer - deep touch receptors | 1 set | |
| 28 | very large, onion-like oval receptor deep in lower dermis and hypodermis; mechanoreceptors for pressure/vibration | 1 set | |
| 29 | a sensory receptor that senses deep touch | 1 set | |
| 30 | very rapidly adapting mechanoreceptor | 1 set | |
| 31 | primarily responsible for sensing vibration | 1 set | |
