More from the MuseumTour expert:
Skin is the largest sensory organ of the human body. It is sensitive to different kinds of stimuli, such as touch, pressure, and temperature. Within the skin, there are different types of receptors that are activated by different stimuli. A series of nerve impulses is triggered when a receptor is activated. To feel a stimulus, the nerve impulses must make their way up to the brain.
