Mechanoreceptors respond to physical forces in hearing.
In somatosensory receptors known as mechanoreceptors, extracellular stimuli are transmitted to intracellular signal transduction via mechanically gated ion channels. The most common types of external stimuli include touch, pressure, stretching, hearing, and motion. Both the surface and deeper layers of skin, as well as the area close to bones, include mechanoreceptors. The free nerve ends are often unencapsulated dendrites, and these receptors can be either encapsulated or unencapsulated. There are four main types of tactile mechanoreceptors: Pacinian corpuscles, Merkel's disks, Meissner's corpuscles, and Ruffini endings.
