kogti [31]

Answer:

B. only chemoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, thermoreceptors, and nociceptors

Explanation:

Receptors are chemical structures, that receive and transduce signals that may be integrated into biological systems.

Receptors that can be found in the  mouth include:  chemoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, thermoreceptors, and nociceptors.

<u>Chemoreceptors</u>

These are receptors that detects chemical stimuli, either molecules or ions dissolved in liquids. An example would be our taste buds in the mouth, because they respond to specific molecules or ions in our ingested food.

<u>Thermoreceptors</u> responds to changes in temperature. These receptors are present in the oral cavity, skin and hypothalamus.

Mechanoreceptors are receptors that respond to distortion of the plasma membrane that occurs due to touch, pressure, vibration, stretch, stress or strain . They can be found in the mucosae of ginviva (gum), cheek, tongue and soft and hard palate.

<u>Nociceptors</u> are receptor responds to painful stimuli. The purpose of nociceptors is to inform the body of injury, damage or threat of damage to body tissues  so that a response may be made. They can be found in the   tooth pulp and within dentine cavity.

It opens into the auditory canal which serves as the pathway for sound waves to the inner ear (tympanic membrane).
