Touch (Delirious
In physiology, the somatosensory system is the network of Nervous system, neural structures in the brain and body that produce the perception of touch (haptic perception), as well as temperature (thermoception), body position (proprioception), and pain. It is a subset of the sensory nervous system, which also represents Visual system, visual, Auditory system, auditory, olfactory, and gustatory stimuli. Somatosensation begins when Mechanoreceptor, mechano- and Thermoreceptor, thermosensitive structures in the skin or internal organs sense physical stimuli such as pressure on the skin (see mechanotransduction, nociception). Activation of these structures, or receptors, leads to activation of Dorsal root ganglion, peripheral sensory neurons that convey signals to the spinal cord as patterns of action potentials. Sensory information is then processed Posterior horn of spinal cord, locally in the spinal cord to drive reflexes, and is also Dorsal column–medial lemniscus pathway, con ...
