Skin Receptor Matching

This solution details the correct matching of skin receptor types from List-I with their corresponding sensory functions in List-II.

Key Receptor-Function Pairs

Understanding the specific roles of various skin receptors is crucial for identifying the correct matches.

List-I: Receptor Type List-II: Sensory Function Established Association
(a) Meissner's corpuscles (iii) Touch Detects light touch and texture changes.
(b) Pacinian corpuscles (iv) Pressure Senses deep pressure and high-frequency vibrations.
(c) Krauser's end bulbs (i) Cold Primarily responsible for detecting cold stimuli.
(d) Free nerve ending (ii) Pain Responds to noxious stimuli (pain) and temperature variations.

Conclusion

Based on these established physiological associations, the correct matching combination is:

(a)-(iii); (b)-(iv); (c)-(i); (d)-(ii)
