Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Proprioceptors are sensory receptors that are located in muscles, tendons, and joints rather than in the skin. They provide information about body position and movement. Pacinian corpuscles, Ruffini end organs, Merkel disks, and Meissner corpuscles are all types of sensory receptors found in the skin, involved in the detection of pressure, vibration, stretch, and touch.
