Accepted Answer

Tactile and lamellated corpuscles are both types of mechanoreceptors, which detect mechanical stimuli such as pressure, vibration, or stretch. Photoreceptors are specialized cells in the retina that detect light. Thermoreceptors detect changes in temperature. Chemoreceptors detect chemical stimuli, such as taste or smell. Nociceptors detect pain.
