Here is what I know:

Physician is a primary care provider.
Nurse practitioner & physician assistants can serve as primary care providers under the direction of a physician. Because they can diagnose & treat certain diseases as well as write prescriptions for certain medications to treat said diseases.

Dermatologists treat diseases of the skin. To see one may require a call from the physician known as a referral. A patient may also just walk in to be seen by the dermatologist. But the dermatologist cannot treat heart, muscle, diabetes, sprains, etc.
so I would say the dermatologist is a secondary care provider.

You are trying out a new type of food that is very spicy. Describe what chemoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, and nocioreceptors are

Gelneren [198K]

These are all receptors that react to certain kinds of stimuli. The chemoreceptors react when there are changes in chemical concentrations within the body; the mechanoreceptors detect pressure or distorted stimuli; and the nocioreceptors send signals of pain to the spinal cord and brain.

Spicy food actually does not have a specific location in the taste buds of the tongue. This is the reason why it is not considered a flavor but rather a sensation. Spicy food stimulates the release of chemicals and signals to the brain which are detected by these different kinds of receptors.
