Based on the stimuli and functions, sensory receptors are classified
into

Chemoreceptors: Detect presence of chemicals.

Thermoreceptors: Detect changes in the temperature.
Mechanoreceptors: Detect mechanical changes in the environment such as movements.
Photoreceptors: Detect light during vision.
Specialized sensory receptors have more specific functions. For example
1. Proprioceptors: Respond to positioning and movements.
2. Baroreceptors: Respond to changes in the blood pressure.
3. Hygroreceptors: Detects moisture content in the environment.
4 Osmoreceptors: Responds to osmotic pressure and is observed in homeothermic animals.
Sometimes the mechanism is not clear and they may exhibit multiple functions. For instance,
osmoreceptors besides responding to osmolarity of fluids may also respond to mechanical and chemical
changes.
