Correct Answer: Mechanoreceptor

Solution : The correct option is Mechanoreceptor.

"Mechanoreceptors" are the sensory receptors that detect blood pressure. The mechanoreceptors, known as "baroreceptors", are specialised sensory nerve endings found in blood vessels, notably the carotid arteries (located in the neck), and the aortic arch (placed near the heart). These receptors detect variations in blood pressure, and convey this information to the nervous system, assisting in the regulation, and maintenance of normal blood pressure.
