The organ that living things such as fish use to extract dissolved oxygen from water are the gills. As land animals and humans don't have gills, we can't breath underwater and take in the oxygen from that source.

Fish, sea slugs, and all underwater animals have organs called gills which allow them to extract dissolved oxygen from the water and therefore 'breathe' and live underwater.

Which mechanoreceptor is located deeper in the skin and responds continuously to stimulation and is associated with perceiving s
Eva8 [605]

The mechanoreceptor that is located deeper in the skin and responds continuously to stimulation and is associated with perceiving stretching of the skin is called Ruffini corpuscle.

Mechanoreceptor is a sensory receptor that responds to mechanical pressure. They are connected with sensory neurons that convert this mechanical pressure into electrical signal. It is of four types-

1. Merkel corpuscles- detect pressure and roughness on skin.

2. Ruffini corpuscles- detect deep tension in skin, skin stretch.

3. Meissner corpuscles- perception of light touch and slip on skin.

4. Pacinian corpuscles or Vater-panician corpuscles- detect rapid vibrations.

When these receptors sense a stimuli they gets excited and generates an impulse that travels through the nerve cells into the brain.
