Thermoreceptors are responsible for detecting temperature, not mechanical stimuli.

The trigeminal nerve is responsible for sensation in the face, including the sense of touch.

The somatosensory system is responsible for detecting touch, pain, temperature, and proprioception, but not visual stimuli.

Tactile acuity refers to the ability to perceive fine details of an object's texture.

Two-point discrimination is a test of tactile acuity, not an illusion.

Proprioception refers to the ability to sense the position of one's body parts without visual input.

Meissner's corpuscle is a mechanoreceptor, not a thermoreceptor.

Stereognosis refers to the ability to identify an object by touch without visual input.

Phantom limb pain is a type of neuropathic pain, not a separate category.

The gate control theory of pain suggests that pain signals can be blocked by activating certain nerve fibers, which close a 'gate' in the spinal cord.

Photoreceptors are responsible for detecting light, not touch.

Baresthesia refers to the ability to perceive the weight of an object.

The visual cortex is responsible for processing visual information, not somatosensory information.

Stereognosis refers to the ability to perceive the shape of an object by touch.

Prosopagnosia is a type of visual agnosia, not tactile agnosia.
