Answer 1

Here are the matches for the sensory receptors and their definitions:

• Photoreceptor: A sensory receptor that responds to light; responsible for vision.
• Chemoreceptor: A sensory receptor that responds to chemical stimuli; involved in the sense of taste and smell.
• Thermoreceptor: A sensory receptor that responds to changes in temperature; involved in the sense of heat and cold.
• Mechanoreceptor: A sensory receptor that responds to mechanical forces such as pressure, touch, and vibration.

You can match them as follows:

1. Photoreceptor - A sensory receptor that responds to light.
2. Chemoreceptor - A sensory receptor that responds to chemical stimuli.
3. Thermoreceptor - A sensory receptor that responds to temperature changes.
4. Mechanoreceptor - A sensory receptor that responds to mechanical forces.
