Nociceptors are specialized nerve endings that detect and respond to painful stimuli or tissue damage. They are responsible for perceiving damage in some internal organs. Mechanoreceptors respond to mechanical stimuli such as pressure, stretch, or vibration; photoreceptors respond to light; chemoreceptors respond to chemical stimuli; and thermoreceptors respond to changes in temperature.
