Question

which of the following are associated with the sense of touch?
multiple choice
fibroblasts
keratinocytes
dendritic cells
melanocytes
tactile cells

Explanation:

Tactile cells, also known as Merkel cells, are specialized cells in the skin that are associated with the sense of touch. They work in conjunction with sensory nerve endings to detect light touch and pressure. Fibroblasts are involved in producing connective tissue components like collagen. Keratinocytes are the main cells of the epidermis that produce keratin. Dendritic cells (like Langerhans cells in the skin) are part of the immune system. Melanocytes produce melanin which gives color to the skin.

Answer:

Tactile cells
