Give three examples of stimuli that your sensory receptors are responding

Sensory receptors are cells which are able to receive external stimuli such as light, temperature and pressure. These receptors send the information they receive to the brain and it is understood as a sensation.

Examples of sensory receptors are the cone and rod cells in the retina which receive light, pressure sensors on the skin, temperature sensors on the skin, taste cells on the tongue and many more.
