Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Free nerve endings are the simplest sensory receptors that respond to mechanical distortion, changes in temperature, or specific chemicals. Nociceptors respond to pain, gated channels are specialized ion channels that control the flow of ions across the membrane, photoreceptors respond to light, and ganglia are clusters of nerve cell bodies.
