Which of the Following Would NOT Be Categorized as a "Somatic

Question

Which of the following would NOT be categorized as a "somatic" sensation?
A)Pressure
B)Cold and warmth
C)Sound
D)Proprioception
E)Kinesthesia

Accepted Answer

Somatic sensations refer to sensory information that originates from the body, including touch, pressure, temperature, proprioception (sense of body position), and kinesthesia (sense of movement). Sound is not a somatic sensation because it originates from outside the body and is processed by the auditory system, which is separate from the somatosensory system.
