• mechano-: Mechanoreceptors detect pressure, touch, vibration (mechanical stimuli), so match with "pressure, touch, vibration".
• photo-: Photoreceptors detect light, so match with "light".
• proprio-: Proprioceptors detect balance, orientation (body position), so match with "balance, orientation".
• chemo-: Chemoreceptors detect chemicals dissolved in aqueous solution, so match with "chemicals dissolve in aqueous solution".
