    The document discusses the sense of touch and how humans interact with objects physically. It explains that skin contains three layers and millions of receptors that sense pressure, temperature, pain, and other tactile sensations. Four main types of receptors in the dermis are described which detect different qualities of touch. The document outlines the pathway that sensory information takes from the receptors to the spinal cord, thalamus, somatosensory cortex and how the brain processes tactile signals and returns motor responses.

    How do We Touch Things?

    ● Skin…duh?
    ● 3 Layers?
    ○ Epidermis
    ○ Dermis
    ○ Hypodermis
    ● Millions of Receptors
    ● Sensing
    ○ Pressure
    ○ Temperature
    ○ Pain
    ○ Shape and Size

    All about Receptors!

    ● 4 types all located in the Dermis


    ● Types include
    ○ Pacinian Corpuscles (Per-cinian, Core-pus-quoles)
    ■ Pressure
    ○ Meissner Corpuscles (Mice-inner, Core-pus-quoles)
    ■ Shape and Size
    ○ Ruffini Corpuscles (Ruff-e ni, Core-pus-quoles)
    ■ Temperature - Warmth
    ○ Krause Corpuscles (Krowse, Core-pus-quoles)
    ■ Temperature - Cold

    Post Processing!
    ● Starting with Sensory
    Nerves
    ● Pathway to the Spinal Cord
    ● Know it! - Thalamus
    ● What did we do? -
    Somatosensory Cortex
    ● Location - Postcentral
    Gyrus of the Parietal Lobe

    Neurons
    4. Up the Spinal
    Cord
    5. Brain
