Which is the sensory receptor involved in detecting blood pressure? A)Chemo receptor B)Mechano receptor C)Photo receptor D)Magneto receptor
Option B) Baroreceptors are sensors located in the blood vessels of all vertebrate animals that sense the blood pressure and relay the information to the brain, so that a proper blood pressure can be maintained. They are a type of mechanoreceptor sensory neuron that is excited by stretch of the blood vessel. Mechanoreceptors are the sensory receptors that respond to any type of primary stimuli of pressure.
