what types of information are transmitted to the brain by general sensory receptors in the skin?
intensity
amount of tissue damage
location
duration
type of sensation
General sensory receptors in the skin transmit information such as intensity (how strong the stimulus is), location (where on the skin the stimulus is), duration (how long the stimulus lasts), and type of sensation (e.g., touch, pain, temperature). The amount of tissue damage is not directly transmitted by general sensory receptors in the skin; rather, pain receptors (a type of sensory receptor) can signal that there might be tissue damage based on the stimulus they detect (like a strong, damaging stimulus causing pain), but they don't measure the exact "amount of tissue damage".
